In sharp contrast to claims, the Congress government is showcasing different initiatives and achievements under the BRS government to contestants of the Miss World pageant

Following the outrage over Telangana women washing the feet of Miss World contestants ahead of their visit to Ramappa temple, Panchayat Raj and Rural Development Minister D Anasuya found fault with the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) for politicizing the issue

Speaking at Telangana Bhavan, former MLA Gongidi Sunitha also took exception to allowing beauty contestants to play Bathukamma with footwear

"This is a land where brave women like Rani Rudramadevi and Sammakka-Saralamma were born. What happened is not just shameful, it’s despicable. The government owes an apology to the entire women community for its actions," she said.
