Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) working president K.T. Rama Rao urged the public to teach a befitting lesson to the Congress for betraying every section of Telangana society through false promises and deceptive declarations. He warned that even existing welfare schemes may be discontinued if people vote for the Congress candidate in the Jubilee Hills constituency’s bypoll.
Speaking at a meeting with party workers from the Jubilee Hills constituency, Mr. Rama Rao alleged that top Congress leaders, including Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi, misled the people of Telangana with fake guarantees during the elections.
He reminded the gathering that several welfare schemes have already been stopped since the Congress came to power. “The Congress believes that people have accepted their scams and corruption, and hence have even halted developmental works,” he said.
Alleging that both the BJP and Congress are working hand-in-glove in the State, he said, “The BJP-led central government is shielding Revanth Reddy’s corruption, which is why Prime Minister Modi hasn’t filed a single case against him.” He alleged that the only agenda of these two parties is to defeat the Telangana-based party, BRS.
Earlier, Mr. Rama Rao paid tributes to late MLA Maganti Gopinath and said that the bypoll, necessitated by his untimely demise, should be taken seriously. He called on the cadre to work hard to ensure victory. “Let us hoist the pink flag once again in Jubilee Hills as a tribute to Gopinath,” he told party workers. He directed each worker to take responsibility for at least 100 votes or 25 households and explain the difference between KCR’s administration and the current Congress regime to the public.
