TGMDC chairman slams BRS, BJP over comments against Revanth government

Telangana Mineral Development Corporation (TGMDC) Chairman Anil Kumar Eeravathri flayed the Opposition parties, accusing both the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of failing the people of Telangana, particularly the Backward Classes (BC).

Speaking to the media at Gandhi Bhavan on Sunday, Mr. Anil Kumar advised BRS working president K.T. Rama Rao not to compare himself with Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, stating that KTR cannot match Mr. Reddy in any aspect. “You need not worry about Mr. Revanth Reddy. I’m enough to debate with you on any issues. Let’s meet at the Press Club and discuss everything,” he challenged KTR.

The former MLA accused the BRS regime of being responsible for the financial distress of the State. “Your family has bankrupted Telangana. In some Arab countries, people are stoned in stadiums for such betrayal, and such harsh punishment wouldn’t be unjustified,” he said.

Training his guns at the new BJP State president N. Ramchander Rao, he questioned the BJP’s commitment to BCs. “There is no social justice in your party. You are from the Open Category (OC), your former president Kishan Reddy is an OC, and your assembly floor leader Maheshwar Reddy is an OC. You talk about BC welfare, but where is the representation?” he questioned.

Mr. Anil Kumar also slammed BRS MLC and Telangana Jagruthi president K. Kavitha for her plans to conduct rail roko demanding implementation of 42% reservation for the Backward Classes accusing the BRS that it had not done anything in this regard under their rule.
