Rahul too busy to pay tributes to PV: Kishan Reddy

Countering Kishan Reddy’s comments, AICC spokesperson D Sravan stressed that BJP leaders should learn to respect their veteran leaders, who toiled hard all their life in building the party.

Hyderabad: Union Minister of State for Home G Kishan Reddy found fault with Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for failing to pay tributes to former Prime Minister PV Narasimha Rao on his birth centenary on Monday.

Kishan Reddy tweeted “So busy is Shri Rahul Gandhi that he has “forgotten” to pay tributes to Sri PV Narasimha Rao Garu on his 100th Jayanthi. Sri PVNR was a lifelong Congressman, yet appalling to see how one dynasty tramples over his legacy. Such political untouchability is distasteful and unfortunate”
