Jogulamba Gadwal: The Congress government has done it again! After the Greater Warangal Municipal Corporation (GWMC), now the Transport Department has put an up unofficial Emblem the Telangana State on the barricades established at Jogulamba Gadwal district here on Tuesday.
The RTA border checkpost barricade established on the Alampur-Kurnool road on the inter-State border triggered a row again. Images of the barricade, put up by the Jogulamba Gadwal RTA officials, has gone viral on various social media platforms. Many raised serious objections over the RTA officials using the unofficial emblem on the barricade.
“It has become fancy for officials to disrespect the official logo of Telangana,” said SRG on X. To make matters worse, the barricade is sponsored by a private hospital from Andhra Pradesh. This is not the first time that officials have used unofficial logo of the Telangana State in official programmes.
In August this year, the GWMC had put up Layout Regularisation Scheme help desk with a banner sporting unofficial emblem. This had triggered a row and Bharat Rashtra Samithi had taken serious objection to the act.
BRS working president KT Rama Rao had also demanded the State government to take strong action against the officials responsible for the lapse.
The banner put up by the officials at GWMC head office lacked Kakatiya Kala Thoranam and Charminar. Similar logo was used on the barricade put up by Jogulamba Gadwal RTA officials on the border checkpost.
