"deeksha-diwas"

BRS MLA Talasani Srinivas Yadav accused the Congress government of betraying people in GHMC limits by failing to deliver on promises and reducing BC representation in gram panchayat polls. Addressing party functionaries, he assured workers that BRS would restore development and reward loyalty.

Harish Rao said Telangana would not have been formed without KCR’s 2009 fast, which pushed the Centre to announce statehood. He highlighted Siddipet’s growth since then and said BRS will build a new martyrs’ memorial. People were urged to join Deeksha Diwas.

BRS working president KT Rama Rao has urged students across Telangana to launch a state-wide agitation under the banner 'Vidyarthi Ranabheri' against the Congress government, accusing it of betraying the education and employment sectors.

BRS working president K.T. Rama Rao has asked party cadres to organise grand statewide celebrations for ‘Deeksha Diwas’ on November 29, marking 15 years since K. Chandrashekhar Rao’s fast-unto-death for Telangana statehood. District units will hold meetings, exhibitions, and welfare activities.

With streetlights going off abruptly and unusually, BRS leaders were on Friday forced to take out a rally in darkness from the Basavatarakam Indo American Cancer Hospital to Telangana Bhavan at Banjara Hills. The party leaders termed it a deliberate attempt by the Congress government to disrupt the rally.

The BRS cadre conducted two-wheeler rallies, distributed fruits, organized blood donation camps, and arranged 'annadanam' for the underprivileged. In addition, they held various charitable activities across all 33 districts of Telangana. Floral tributes were offered at the statues of Telangana Thalli at BRS party offices, and homage was paid to Telangana martyrs.

BRS leaders and local people, who participated in large numbers in the Deeksha Diwas programme held at Alugunur here on Friday, recollected the scenes that happened during the time of the arrest of party president K Chandrashekhar Rao 15 years ago.

He complained that Revanth Reddy was plotting to send Chandrashekhar Rao and Rama Rao to jail to damage the BRS. The BRS cadres should draw inspiration from Deeksha Diwas and work with renewed zeal to strengthen the party, he said.
