"tula-uma"

BRS activists staged widespread protests across the erstwhile Karimnagar district opposing the State government’s decision to order a CBI inquiry into the Kaleshwaram project. Alleging political vendetta, the party accused the Congress of using the probe to malign BRS chief K. Chandrashekhar Rao.

Senior Congress leader Palvai Sravanthi, BJP leader Tula Uma and several others joined the BRS on Sunday and Monday

Uma is known as a close follower of BJP State Election Campaign Committee chairman and Huzurabad MLA Etala Rajender. She joined the BJP along with Rajender in 2021.

Tula Uma said it was once again proved that the BJP was still in favor of "doras" (feudal lords) and that there was no space for BCs and women

Though the BJP made a tall promise of making a BC as the Chief Minister, if it was voted to power, was only an empty promise, she rued.

Initially, the BJP kept the Vemulwada ticket issue pending and later announced it to Tula Uma in its fourth list.
