BJP dares KCR to go for early elections

The Bharatiya Janata Party leaders on Monday led by national general secretary Tarun Chugh challenged Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao to “dissolve the Assembly and seek a fresh mandate.“

Launching a full scale attack on Mr. Chandrasekhar Rao for his criticism of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the NDA government at the Centre during his press conference on Sunday, the party welcomed the Chief Minister’s challenge to go in for immediate elections and urged him to initiate the process as the “the BJP is ready anytime even if the elections are held 15 days from now,” said Mr. Chugh.

“The fact is Mr. Rao is rattled by the massive response to the public meeting of Mr. Modi at Parade Grounds last week and has been able to sense the enthusiasm and exuberance. People want freedom from the corrupt, dynastic government with no control over law and order situation with the police themselves facing slew of allegations of atrocities,” he charged in a press statement.
