Free power to ryots in BJP-mukt Bharat after 2024 polls: KCR

Chief Minister and Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) president K. Chandrasekhar Rao has asked the people to elect a non-BJP government at the Centre in 2024 to make BJP-mukt Bharat a reality so that free power could be given to agriculture, as being given in Telangana now, across the country.

Announcing his journey in national politics while addressing a public meeting after inaugurating an integrated district offices complex and TRS office at Nizamabad on Monday, he said he was taking the decision with the acceptance of people to send the anti-people, undemocratic and communal government of BJP packing by joining forces with all like-minded parties and voices rooting for a democratic and secular rule in the country.

He asked the people to understand what was happening around them, think and take decisions for going ahead, stating that a small mistake and ignorance committed by the then leaders of Telangana had led to forcible merger of the region into Andhra. “It took 60 years to regain the statehood with the sacrifice of lives by several youths in different phases of the movement and Telangana had suffered badly in all spheres in the migrant leaders’ rule,” he reminded them.
