‘Contest elections on BRS and seek public mandate’

BJP State president Bandi Sanjay Kumar dared Chief Minister and Bharat Rahstra Samithi (BRS) president K. Chandrashekar Rao to resign and seek public mandate again as people voted for Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) and not for BRS.

“People have voted for TRS and not for BRS. Mr. Chandrashekar Rao lost right to continue as Chief Minister. If you are confident that people will vote you again go for elections,” demanded Mr. Sanjay while speaking to reporters here on Thursday. He said that no one in the TRS was happy with the development and that was visible in their faces.

“Mr. Chandrashekar Rao in the past alleged that the State was paying higher taxes than what it was receiving from the Centre. Now let him clarify how much he would bring to Telangana from the national revenue resources,” said the BJP president. He wanted to know whether the party would contest Munugode Assembly byelection in the name of TRS or BRS. He said that Mr. Chandrashekar Rao could not seek vote in the name of TRS.
