Minister for Finance and Health T.Harish Rao said that the Congress party has been making promises left, right and centre without even thinking about the possibilities of their implementation as the party is sure that it won’t come to power in Telangana.
Speaking after welcoming Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) general secretary R.Abhilash Rao and other leaders from Kollapur constituency in Nagarkurnool district into the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) here on Monday with the symbolic gesture of offering them party scarves, he said the Congress leaders were already resigned to the fate that Chief Minister K.Chandrasekhar Rao would register a hat-trick win.
He pointed out that the Congress party had not kept many promises made before the 2009 Assembly elections, when it last came to power in Telangana, such as making ‘thandas/gudems’ as gram panchayats, ensuring nine-hour free power to the farm sector during the day itself and reducing domestic gas cylinder price among others. On the other hand, BRS had implemented many programmes without even mentioning them in the party manifesto in 2014 and 2018, he noted.
