KT Rama Rao hits out at Rahul Gandhi over forcible land acquisition in Telangana

Hyderabad: BRS working president KT Rama Rao questioned Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s silence on forcible land acquisition and corporate influence in Telangana, while claiming to fight them in other States. He slammed the Congress leader for double standards.

“Rahul Gandhi ji, what is the point of raising your voice against land acquisition and attacking Adani-Ambani when you have failed to stop land acquisition in Telangana?” he asked. He rubbished Rahul Gandhi’s claims of standing up for farmers, pointing out that the Congress has been exploiting Telangana’s people for generations.

“Your fight against Adani-Ambani is just for show,” he remarked.

Taking to X on Sunday, Rama Rao also criticised the Congress government in the State for allowing Adani Group to open its cement factory at Ramannapet, while farmers in Kodangal continue to suffer.

“Is this a case of ‘I act like hitting, you act like crying’? Is there a secret pact behind this drama?” he questioned, raising doubts about possible business links between Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy and businessman Gautam Adani.
