TDP Senior leader Kadiyam Srihari quits party

Kadiyam Srihari

Senior TDP leader and member in T-TDP forum Kadiyam Sri Hari has resigned to party a short while ago. He has sent his resignation letter to party president Chandrababu Naidu through fax. He highlights several points that lead to his resignation.

He writes "I am quitting the party because TDP is gradually drifting away from its stand taken in favor Telangana. There is no place or honor for Telanagana leaders in the party. The party's stand on the issue is still unclear.

Hence, I prefer to take active part in Telangana agitations than relying upon TDP, which gives me political life. TDP is also turns Industrialist and businessmen friendly than being the people and party cadres friendly.


Sri Hari has been unhappy that Naidu has been giving more importance to another leader Motkupalli Narasimhulu who chose to antagonize him.

That is why the party was defeated twice in the elections. Despite the defeat and my feed back, party has never tried for self appraisal in any of the matters, instead it prefes to remain unchanged. There is no co-ordination between the leaders.

There are several issues that I have tried to bring to party notice but none of them were considered. Hence, I feel being negelected and leaving the party."

He further hinted that the party which was formed to fight against Congress is now protecting it. Naidu is backing a party which has lost people's trust. "Public are of the view that TDP and Congress are one," he added. "Naidu has not once expressed his support for Telangana. Party leadership has many loop holes and because of this TDP was defeated twice," he opined.

Reports have been flying around, that Sri Hari might join the TRS. It should be seen if Sri Hari would finally choose the party, being a strong protagonist of Telangana.
