"kcr"

Their hopes that the scheme would see the light of the day during Easter or Ramzan Holy month were shattered. Forget about honouring the promises, till date there has been no review meeting to take stock of the declaration.

The main junction of Narsapur town was jam-packed with the crowd while he addressed them. Since Narsapur constituency has a huge number of Lambada thandas, a huge number of tribals too turned up for the meeting.

This commitment to inclusivity is why Muslims remained loyal to KCR, even during the run-up to the Assembly elections when Congress leader A. Revanth Reddy attempted to court their votes.

"If BJP is so strong, the Prime Minister would not need to stroke communal sentiments," he said, in response to the BJP's claims of '400 paar'.

Despite being in power for a decade, Modi was confined to mere sloganeering and spreading communal hatred without making any tangible accomplishments to take credit for, he said.

Chandrashekhar Rao would reach a position to dictate terms in the State if the BRS won a majority of MP seats, he said while participating in corner meetings in different places of Sircilla town on Monday.

Addressing an election rally at Jagtial as part of his bus tour, Chandrashekhar Rao said Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy should explain the fate of the six guarantees including the crop loan waiver promised on December 9.

After 48-hour ban imposed by the EC, the former Chief Minister addressed a massive rally at Ramagundam, around 9 pm on Friday.

The bus tour was a double impact move. While one was the building up of mass support against the State government’s apathy towards farmers, the other was to inject some much needed vigour into the party cadre.

Rao said the Election Commission did not act against Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy though he attempted to create differences between castes in the State during his speeches.

Chandrashekhar Rao also trained his guns at Modi for not acting upon the allegations against Chief Minister Revanth Reddy of collecting 'RR' tax in Telangana.

Chandrashekhar Rao exuded confidence that the BRS would be able to take the State in its stride once again if the mood of the people across the districts he had toured so far was any indication.

He had a review with elected representatives and former MLAs at the residence of former Minister V Srinivas Goud on the strategies to be adopted in the upcoming parliamentary polls in the district.

As a leader wedded to the cause of development, he seeks to address issues sharing his point of view on social media platforms. Rao has opened his X account in the name of @KCRBRSpresident.

Will these things fill our empty stomachs or bring water to our agricultural fields?" he asked, receiving a rousing response from the crowd.

The BJP would win "one or none", he said, stating that even union Minister G Kishan Reddy would lose in Secunderabad with the BRS fielding T Padma Rao Goud, who was sure to win.

Asserting that electricity was key to development, he laid out in detail how his government facilitated linking of Angul-Palasa and Wardha-Ditchpally lines connected to the national grid, while the Warangal-Warora line was nearing completion.

The BRS chief will be holding road shows at Miryalaguda and Suryapet on April 24 and at Bhongir on April 25.

The Congress, which promised to scale up the Dalit Bandhu assistance from Rs.10 lakh to Rs.12 lakh, had however frozen the funds, proving that it had intended nothing but mere lip service.

On the occasion, Chandrashekhar Rao remembered various initiatives of the previous BRS government for socio-economic progress of the marginalised sections in Telangana and subsequent development in last 10 years.
