Cheating cases should be filed against BRS for unfulfilled promises: Jagga Reddy

Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) working president T. Jayaprakash Reddy took objection to the ‘420 promises’ comments by BRS working president K.T. Rama Rao and said he would explore filing cheating cases against BRS for “unfulfilled promises in the last nine years”.

Speaking to reporters at Gandhi Bhavan on Friday, he asked BRS leaders K.T. Rama Rao and T. Harish Rao to explain why the promises like Dalit Chief Minister, three acres of land to Dalits, unemployment dole of ₹3,016 for graduates, and jobs to every youngster, were not fulfilled even in nine and half years of their rule. Compensation was not paid to farmers whose lands were snatched away forcibly by the government and cases should be filed against BRS leaders for this as well.

“Now, Mr. Rama Rao and Mr. Harish Rao want the Congress to fulfil its promises in less than a month. Do they have any moral right to ask the Congress government? Let them introspect on their rule and why people rejected them,” he said.
