Working president of Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) K.T. Rama Rao has asked the party ranks and the support base to teach a fitting lesson to those who have left the party when it is passing through a rough phase and cautioned people against getting deceived by the Congress for the second time in a row.
Speaking at a roadshow held in Budvel, Rajendranagar segment of Chevella Parliamentary Constituency on Tuesday, he said neither the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and National Democratic Alliance (NDA) or Congress and INDIA alliance were in position to win 200 and 100 seats, respectively, and it would make the regional parties call the shots in the formation of the next Government at the Centre. At least eight to 10 seats for BRS in Lok Sabha would make the next Government protect the interests of Telangana.
He asked the party ranks and supporters to teach a lesson to both G. Ranjith Reddy and K. Vishweshwar Reddy who were given political life by the BRS. They had backstabbed the party by defecting to Congress and BJP, respectively, to protect their personal and business interests. Stating that there was a misgiving that backward classes (BC) candidates would not win seats, he asked the electorate of Chevella to prove it wrong as the BRS had given the opportunity to Kasani Gnaneshwar, a BC contesting the seat for the first time.
