Hyderabad: Ahead of Hyderabad Liberation Day on 17 September, BJP Mahila Morcha organised a bike rally from Bhagyalakshmi Temple in Charminar to Sardar Vallabai Patel via Parade Grounds on Thursday.

Union Minister G. Kishan Reddy participated in the rally along with Geetha Krishna Murthy, president of BJP Mahila Morcha.

Earlier, Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao had announced that there will be celebrations for three days to mark the 75th liberation day. The TRS has also made it clear that it will observe the day as National Integration Day. The celebrations will include the hoisting of the national flag at the state, district, and mandal levels. KCR will hoist the national flag at the Public Gardens in Hyderabad. Mass rallies and a cultural programme is also planned on 18 September.

BJP, on the other hand, has announced a year-long celebration. Union Home minister Amit Shah will kickstart the celebrations on 17 September in Hyderabad. The Chief Ministers of Karnataka and Maharashtra have been invited to Hyderabad for the event.

Congress has also decided to hold a year-long celebration to mark Hyderabad's merger with the Union of India.

Hyderabad joined the rest of India on 17 September 1948 following the annexation of Hyderabad into India using force through a military operation by the Indian armed forces known as Operation Polo.

AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi has also said that the party will organise a bike rally on 16 September after Friday prayers. Naming it the 'Tiranga rally', Owaisi said the rally will begin from Mir Alam Eidgah, Tadban, at 1.30 p.m. A public meeting and flag hoisting will be held at Teegalkunta crossroads.

Earlier, the AIMIM chief had written to the Centre requesting it to call Hyderabad Liberation Day as National Integration Day.
