Haryana Governor Bandaru Dattatreya organised the Alai Balai programme irrespective of political affiliations, however, politicians showed their true colours by criticising each other indirectly.
Criticising the use of foul language in politics, the Union Minister of Coal and Mines, G. Kishan Reddy, said there is no problem if they criticise each other. However, that criticism should not make people hate their language. He hoped that politicians would change their speaking style as well as their language.
Leaders may fight each other during elections but they should forget that and work for public welfare
Transport Minister Ponnam Prabhakar said that some politicians are inciting communal hatred and that they should control themselves. He appealed to Bandaru Dattatreya to ensure that leaders spoke without inciting communal feelings.
