Senior leader of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) and former minister T. Harish Rao has said that the ruling Congress party could ‘buy’ some of its (BRS) leaders but it would not be in a position to buy its ranks, irrespective of employing all tactics.
The leaders who enjoyed power and posts and betraying it now would not be taken back under any circumstances in future, Mr. Rao speaking at the party’s preparatory meetings of Zaheerabad and Medak Lok Sabha constituencies held at Kamareddy, Yellareddy and Nizampet (Medak) on Sunday in support of party candidates G. Anil Kumar and P. Venkatrama Reddy.
At Kamareddy, he sought to know from the party ranks to educate people on the broken promises of the Congress and ask them to support BRS if they were not benefited with enhanced social security pension of ₹4,000 per month, ₹2,500 per month assistance to women, enhanced assistance under kalyana laxmi/shaadi mubarak of ₹1 lakh and 10 grams gold, enhanced rythu bharosa assistance of ₹15,000 per acre, ₹2 lakh per farmer loan waiver and others and vote for Congress if they had received these benefits.
