The Bharat Rashtra Samiti (BRS) was unable to digest the success of the Congress’ public meeting in Khammam on Sunday and the verbal attack on Rahul Gandhi was an indication of the ruling party’s frustration with people’s overwhelming response, said Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president A.Revanth Reddy.
He said those questioning Mr.Gandhi’s position to announce the ₹4,000 pension scheme should realise that he is the son of Sonia Gandhi, who delivered the 60-year-old separate statehood dream of Telangana. He said Mr. Gandhi’s family members sacrificed their lives for the country and those questioning his eligibility will not understand what sacrifice is as they were living on others’ sacrifices.
“Those questioning his visit to Telangana should realise that, unlike Mr. KCR’s family, Mr.Gandhi did not hanker for power, and despite having an opportunity to be the Prime Minister, he did not even opt to be a Minister. This shows the magnanimity of the Gandhi family and those who behave like slaves for a Ministerial post in the KCR government will not understand the value of sacrifices,” said Mr.Reddy.
