Kodandaram slams defections

In a significant and loaded comment, Telangana Political Joint Action Committee chairperson Prof. Kodandaram decried defections in Telangana. On Tuesday, he said it is wrong on the part of any political party to encourage defections.

Defections were wrong, he said. Such defections would cause political instability. He also lamented that the farmers suicides were continuing unabated in Telangana and added that the JAC would announce a programme of action on the farmers'suicides soon.
Kodandaram's comments assure significance in view of the defections into the TRS ahead of the GHMC elections.
