KTR should control his tongue while criticising CM: Congress leaders

Leaders of the Congress party have denounced the “objectionable” language used by BRS working president K.T. Rama Rao against Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, and said the former Minister’s frustration could be understood as Mr.Reddy was a popular leader elected by the people and not a political heir.

In separate press conferences Rajya Sabha member Anil Kumar, Choppadandi MLA Medipally Satyam, Khanapur MLA Vedma Bojja and senior vice-president Mallu Ravi said unlike Mr.Rama Rao, the Chief Minister rose from the bottom of the political ladder winning the ZPTC elections as an independent, MLC as an independent, MLA and MP. “Where would Mr.Rama Rao be without his father and the Telangana movement,” they asked.

They advised Mr.Rama Rao not to compare himself to Mr. Revanth Reddy, who was an “elected” leader and did not come from the ‘management and family’ quota.
