No merger says KCR

TRS chief K Chandrasekhara Rao ruled out the possibility of merger of his party in Congress. Addressing a meeting of the party’s coordinators, the mercurial leader said he had no faith on Congress and would not merge the party in it. He told the party’s functionaries to take the local bodies elections seriously and not bother about the speculations on Telangana.

Kadiyam Sri Hari who briefed the media after the meeting, said if Congress conceded Telangana, it would be for its own good. He however said that people would not trust the party until Sonia Gandhi made an announcement and brought the Telangana bill in the Parliament.
