Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy intensified his criticism against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, accusing them of undermining the Constitution and reservations for the underprivileged.
Mr. Reddy termed the upcoming 18th Lok Sabha elections as a clash of ideologies, delineating between those advocating for and against Constitutional principles and reservation policies in India. He warned of a looming threat to the nation’s secular fabric from communal forces, specifically targeting the BJP and its parental organisation, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), alleging their concerted efforts to establish a Hindu Rashtra (Hindu nation) by 2025, coinciding with the centenary of the RSS.
The CM condemned Mr. Modi for “exploiting religious sentiments to perpetuate his hold on power”, asserting his readiness to “stoop down to any level for political gains”.
