    4 Telangana municipal employees suspended for missing KTR's 'birthday'
    The municipality organized KTR's 'birthday celebrations' at the Belampally Government Hospital.

    Telangana government's municipal body reportedly suspended four government employees for not attending minister KT Rama Rao's 'birthday bash' on July 24. The Bellampally Municipal Commission employees were given a memo for missing an event organized "in honor of KTR's birthday." However, soon after the news broke, the memo was revoked. According to Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS), the event was a plantation drive.

    It directed the employees to respond with reason within 24 hours of "touching the memo," and threatened disciplinary action in the absence of a response.

    BJP slams TRS government

    The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) slammed the Telangana government for the developments. Taking to Twitter, Amit Malviya questioned why the employees had to explain their absence at 'Prince KTR's birthday bash.' "Last we knew, Telangana still had a government that was elected to serve people, or has it transformed into a monarchy, fiefdom of the KCR family?" he commented.

    Plantation drive, clarifies TRS

    The TRS, however, clarified that the event was not a 'birthday bash' but a tree plantation drive under the Haritha Haram drive. Spokesperson Krishank told India Today, "KTR did not celebrate his birthday this year because of devastating floods in the state. This document is a plantation program that all government employees were asked to attend."
