In a recent interview to national media, Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao’s daughter and Nizamabad MP Kavitha made stunning comments about Jammu Kasmir issue.She said Jammu Kashmir and Telangana were both forcefully and at the same time annexed to the Indian Union.
‘’We were both separate countries, but were merged with the Indian Union after Independence.In 1947, we were not a part of India.
After 1947, we became a part of India.Then the troubles really started.
’’ Said Kavitha
She even went to say India is claiming some parts of Kashmir which does not belong to it.“We need to come out clean on Jammu and Kashmir.Few parts were not ours, we should agree, we should redraw the international lines, and move on”, she said.
Kavitha also suggested to decrease the defense allotments by solving the Kasmir issue and use that money for sensitive issues like women welfare and poverty elimination.
‘’In the Budget, almost Rs 2.50 lakh crore has been allotted to defense.If we have a peaceful environment in our bordering states, we don’t have to spend so much on defence.We can spend that money on education, women’s development or sanitation.
’’She added
Finally she concluded the interview by saying she is ashamed of being a citizen of a country where there are no bathrooms for girls in schools.These remarks of Kavitha have shocked other political parties and leaders.
Congress spokesperson Abhishek Singhvi told reporters that remarks of Kavitha were objectionable
