Telangana Congress took to the streets on July 12 burning the effigies of the Chief Minister, K. Chandrashekar Rao across the State accusing the Bharat Rasthra Samiti (BRS) of twisting the comments of TPCC president, A. Revanth Reddy on the free power supply and also failure of the government to provide quality power supply to the farmers.
Large number of cadres came out and protested at the electricity sub-stations demanding the government to provide 24-hour power supply as promised. They said the three-phase power, which is critical for agriculture pump sets, was not provided even for 8 hours though the government has been claiming 24-hours power supply.
Protests were held at Devarakadara led by party in-charge G. Madhusudhan Reddy while in Bhupalapally it was led by Satyanarayana Rao and Islavath Devan. Mr. Madhusudhan Reddy said it was a shame that the Ministers and the ruling party were creating fake news twisting the comments of Mr. Revanth Reddy, who had raised the question of corruption in the 24-hour power supply.
