However, he charged the Congress with discontinuing welfare schemes after coming to power. “The Congress made false promises. After forming the government, they ended all schemes. Instead of gifts, they are sending bulldozers to the houses of the poor,” he said. He expressed confidence that BRS would return to power. “KCR will become the Chief Minister again and Ramzan gifts will once again reach every poor Muslim,” he said.
