Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) working president K.T. Rama Rao (KTR) has designated December 9 as Vijay Diwas (Victory Day), recognising it as the critical moment that initiated the formation of Telangana state.
This day marks 16 years since the Central Government officially announced the commencement of the Telangana state creation
process.
This landmark decision was the culmination of years of intense public mobilisation, mass struggle, and significant sacrifices.
A pivotal factor in forcing this announcement was the indefinite hunger strike undertaken by BRS chief K. Chandrashekar Rao (KCR), which effectively amplified the demand for a separate state.
