Union Tourism Minister G. Kishan Reddy claimed that no national leader takes Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao seriously despite his efforts to project himself as a national leader in the garb of creating a new platform against BJP.
At a press conference here on Sunday, he said that the Chief Minister has stooped down to a level where he was literally dragging the leaders to their chairs in press conferences even when they were not interested. After his tours to Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Punjab, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Bihar, leaders were forced to deny his “false claims” on opposition unity, he alleged. “He is an uninvited guest in those States and this effort is to divert the attention of people from his failures in Telangana.”
The Union Minister also said that Telangana’s economy collapsed contrary to the claims of KCR and after pushing the State into ₹5 lakh crore debt, he was now trying to blackmail the Centre for not allowing loans to be raised against norms.
