Revanth Reddy has confessed inability to deliver on promises, says KTR

The BRS leader condemned the Congress government for making empty promises during elections and failing to fulfill them after coming to power. He accused the Congress of deceiving farmers with assurances of loan waivers, only to fall short in implementing them effectively.

Hyderabad: Launching a scathing attack on the Congress government for the yawning gap between its words and deeds in the implementation of the loan waiver, BRS working president KT Rama Rao said Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy was misleading the public and the Assembly with false statements on the extent of debt relief extended to the farmers. Stating that Revanth Reddy had come out with a confession statement admitting his inability to implement the Six Guarantees promised by the Congress Party to win the polls, he pointed out that Revanth Reddy was unable to explain how the promised Rs 49,500 crore loan waiver was reduced to Rs. 26,000 crore. Despite this, Revanth Reddy had shamelessly claimed that 100% of the loan waiver had been implemented.

The BRS leader criticized the Congress government for making false promises during elections and failing to deliver once in power. He accused the Congress of misleading farmers with promises of loan waivers and then failing to implement them effectively. He pointed out that the previous BRS government had significantly reduced farmer suicides in Telangana through initiatives like Rythu Bandhu and Rythu Bima. Citing the National Crime Records Bureau data, which showed a decrease in farmer suicides from 1,348 in 2014 to 178 in 2022, he attributed the drop to the BRS government’s support for the agricultural sector.He also pointed out that the Congress government had failed to provide a clear explanation for the discrepancies in the loan waiver figures. He stated that while one Congress leader claimed that 70% of the loan waiver had been implemented, the Chief Minister claimed that 100% had been achieved. He asserted that no village in the state had received a complete loan waiver and that even the Chief Minister’s own village, Kondareddipalle, was no exception.
