Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao tried to escape blame over his failed poll promises by trying to create an “irrelevant and non-existent” fight between himself and Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the Munugode bypoll, said Telangana Congress chief A. Revanth Reddy.
Addressing a press conference here along with TPCC Campaign Committee chairman Madhu Yaskhi Goud, he ridiculed Mr.Rao’s speech at Munugode public meeting, stating that he tried to deceive people by speaking on national politics instead of what he had done for Munugode. There was no mention of when the Dindi lift irrigation project and Srisailam Left Bank Canal tunnel would be completed. He did not even refer to the podu lands issue or even justice to meted out to Charlagudem and Kistarayapalli land oustees, said Mr Reddy.
The CM repeatedly referred to the CBI and ED raids in his speech that had nothing to do with the welfare of Munugode people and evoked a sense of fear in people about the dangers of a rising BJP, the Congress leader said, adding, “But who is responsible for this except KCR himself? It is laughable that KCR spoke about the practice of buying MLAs and people’s representatives, a culture that KCR has followed without any guilt.”
