Telangana will witness all-round development, people will get benefits of various welfare schemes and employees will get salaries on time only if the Bharatiya Janata Party is voted to power, said party’s Telangana unit president Bandi Sanjay Kumar.
Flagging of the huge motorcycle rally in the name of “Janam Gosa-BJP Bharosa” at Nancharpally in Siddipet district, on Thursday, he said the eight-year-old Telangana Rashtra Samithi government led by chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao had left the state completely bankrupt and pushed it into the debt trap.
He said the 10-day-long bike rallies being held across the state were meant for reassuring the people of the state that the BJP would stand by them in these difficult times.
Taking pot shots at the chief minister, Sanjay said KCR was the only chief minister who had been ruling the state without going to the secretariat for the last eight years. “He appears to be an expert in more than 100 fields – he turned an engineer and redesigned the Kaleshwaram project by escalating its cost from Rs 30,000 crore to Rs 1 lakh crore, which ultimately was inundated in flood waters,” he added.
“During the pandemic period, KCR became a doctor and prescribed paracetamol to the Covid-19 patients. And now, he turned a meteorological scientist and discovered that there is a foreign conspiracy in the form of cloudbursts to create floods to Godavari,” Sanjay said.
The BJP president said KCR had done little for the people of Siddipet who had given him political life. “Because of his illogical policies, farmers have suffered huge loss of crops in lakhs of acres. He is trying to blame it on the centre for political gains,” he said and demanded that the state government should itself bear the cost of the crop loss.
He alleged that while lakhs of unemployed youth were struggling for jobs and the state government employees were not getting salaries on time, KCR and his family members were enjoying all top positions and looting the public money in thousands of crores.
Alleging that the police were harassing the BJP leaders and cadres, Sanjay said there was no question of getting scared of police cases and intimidation from the TRS leaders. He warned the police officials of serious repercussions in future, if they toed the TRS line.
Referring to the Congress party’s agitations in protest against the Enforcement Directorate questioning Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi in National Herald cases, Sanjay wondered whether it was a major public issue. “When there were allegations against Narendra Modi and Amit Shah, they had faced inquiries and come out clean, but not resorted to agitations,” he recalled.
