Senior BJP leader and Rajya Sabha MP K. Laxman has warned that the Himachal Pradesh political developments, where rebel Congress MLAs had voted against the party’s official candidate in the Rajya Sabha polls, could happen in Telangana also post the Parliament elections.
“Rebellion within the Congress ranks is being witnessed in Karnataka and Himachal Pradesh. The same thing can happen here also. We had no role in the cross-voting as the Congress MLAs had openly voted against the official candidate and one Minister had expressed his frustration over not being able to do anything for the youth,” he claimed.
Addressing a press conference at the party office on Wednesday, Mr. Laxman said if the Congress Government led by Revanth Reddy continues in the same way as that of former Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao, people of Telangana will surely teach a lesson in the days to come. He took objection to the “kind of language” being spoken by the Ministers against the Opposition and advised them to focus on fulfilling the promised six welfare guarantees instead.
