Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) working president K. T. Rama Rao opined that different welfare ‘Bandhu’ schemes cost the party dearly in the Assembly elections as the non-beneficiaries voted against the party.

“In Nizamsagar mandal all the beneficiaries received Dalita Bandhu and people from other communities voted against the BRS,” he said while speaking at the Zaheerabad Lok Sabha election preparatory meeting at Telangana Bhavan on Sunday.

Mr. Rama Rao also expressed the opinion that the party would have fared much better had the candidates been changed in several constituencies. However, such mistakes would be rectified in Parliament elections, he said hinting at a change of candidates in several seats.
