Minister of Excise Jupally Krishna Rao said that BRS leaders K.T. Rama Rao and Harish Rao were worried over “new scams of the BRS government emerging every day and denting their image and their only hope seems to be spreading rumours about the Congress guarantees”.
In a rebuttal to the criticism of the BRS leaders that Congress won’t fulfil its promises, he said that BRS was trying to save its leaders and cadre by levelling baseless allegations against the Congress. The government has already implemented two of its six promises within a few days of coming to power and the remaining would be fulfilled soon.
However, Mr. Rama Rao and Mr. Harish Rao were frustrated over the scams of thousands of crores emerging every day in inquiries and afraid that the BRS cadre would revolt against their loot. He said the BRS had pushed the State into a debt of ₹7 lakh crore and the interest to be paid every year from now onwards is about ₹30,000 crore. “As people are realising how dangerous the BRS government was, the two leaders are trying to divert their attention. But, despite your best efforts, BRS will be emptied as people and also the cadre have realised the loot in the last two terms,” he added.
