Working for two hours fetched Rs 10 lakh for the Telangana Rashtra Samiti chief, Mr K. Chandrasekar Rao who is on a programme of working as a labourer to win huge amounts as donations.
While Mr Rao carried bricks and crushed stones, television cameras recorded him giving him the publicity that he wanted. He got Rs 2.5 lakh for carrying three bricks in a real estate company, Rs 1 lakh for carrying five baskets of crushed stones at Sri Venkateswara Crushers, Rs 1 lakh for carrying three boxes in a toothpaste making company, Kotireddy Pharmax, and Rs 2.5 lakh for working for 90 seconds in 21st Century Ready mix unit. “By any means the response is really great,” Mr Rao said. “Whatever we do there is transparency. The people of Telangana are more than ready to support TRS. We are expecting more than 10 lakh people at the Telangana meeting. This will create a record in the history of the state,” Mr Rao said
