Telangana BJP challenges KCR to a debate on Telangana’s development
Hyderabad (IANS) | BJP’s Telangana unit President Bandi Sanjay Kumar on Sunday Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao to a debate on the development of Telangana during the last nine years. He said that Union Minister G. Kishan Reddy will participate in the discussion on behalf of the BJP. “Let the chief minister come for a debate,” he told reporters in Karimnagar. He demanded that KCR also explain why he failed to fulfill the promises made during the last elections and how he would repay the Rs 5 lakh crore loan.
Sanjay reiterated that the BJP would come to power in Telangana on its own. He also made it clear that the BJP will continue with the good schemes. He said that BJP will also continue the Dharani portal with some changes. He remarked that it is a good move, but it is being used to serve the interests of the KCR family. We will do justice to those who have suffered losses due to the Dharani portal, he said.
The BJP leader dismissed allegations by Congress party leaders that the BJP is in collusion with the BRS and claimed that there is a secret pact between the Congress and the BRS. He said it was the BJP, which defeated the BRS in the assembly bypolls in Dubbaka and Huzurabad, and also gave a tough fight to the party in the Munugode and Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) elections. He wants to know why the Congress did poorly in these elections.
Sanjay also alleged that the BRS provided funds to the Congress party for the Karnataka elections. He claimed that Congress MP Komatireddy Venkata Reddy and senior leader Jana Reddy have already said that the BRS and the Congress will join hands.
The BJP leader said that the nexus between the BRS and the Congress is evident from the fact that people elected on Congress tickets are joining the BRS. He said, KCR decides the candidates of both Congress and BRS. He has already decided candidates for 30 assembly seats.
Sanjay also recalled that when the NDA fielded Draupadi Murmu, a tribal woman, as its candidate for the presidential election, the Congress and the BRS together tried to defeat her.
