The progress made by Telangana should be achieved in the entire country, he said, appealing that all should become partners in the endeavour to realise the noble objective.
"The way we achieved separate state with the slogan of 'Jai Telangana' and put it on the path of progress, we should dedicate ourselves, on the occasion of Christmas, to build a great India with the slogan of 'Jai Bharat'. I seek your support and blessings for it," he said.He also said Telangana is the only state in the country which organises all festivals on a large scale without discrimination of caste, religion or sect, the Chief Minister said and added that "Definitely, this will set a good example for the nation."
