HYDERABAD: TRS working president KT Rama Rao on Sunday said that he would not recognise any organisation formed using his name, such as ‘KTR Yuva Sena’, ‘KTR Seva Dal’ and ‘KTR Fans Association’.

“I will not encourage such organisations or associations. If the youth indeed want to show their affection towards me, they can work with TRS or one of its affiliated bodies,” Rao declared on Sunday. He called for unaffiliated organisations to be dissolved immediately.

Speaking to a delegation of KTR Yuva Sena who called on him, Rao said, “I came to know that there are several organisations such as KTR Yuva Sena, KTR Seva Dal and KTR Abhimana Sangham are active in the State. I cannot endorse them. All of them should be scrapped.”

The TRS working president wanted such organisations to stop being active on social media websites like Twitter and Facebook. “If anyone likes me and the party, they should work under the leadership of party president K Chandrasekhar Rao. And they should do that from within the party,” he said.
