The current situation in the country was worse than the days of emergency with the Narendra Modi government showing discrimination towards the state being ruled by non-BJP parties. He cautioned that the governments, which muzzle the voices of the people and leaders of opposition parties would not survive in the democracy. People of the country would teach a lesson to BJP in the near future, he added.
Strongly objecting to the comments made by the union Ministers and the BJP leaders at the party corner meeting against the BRS government, he said that the union minister should talk after comparing the development that took place in BJP ruled states and Telangana. He suggested that the union ministers from the state should visit their native places and speak after seeing the development in the last eight years. He alleged that the BJP planned corner meetings to take up false propaganda against BRS government.
