PM Modi hits out at ‘corrupt, opportunistic politics’ of BRS, Congress

hyderabad

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has accused the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) president and Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao of deceiving Dalits from day one of being voted to power, by taking over the Chief Minister’s post instead of giving it to a Dalit leader as promised by him in the run-up to the 2014 elections.

“Not only that, but KCR and his BRS government have failed to keep another poll promise of giving three acres land to every Dalit family and his much publicised Dalit Bandhu scheme has failed to reach a majority of the Dalit families,” the Prime Minister said, alleging that it was being given only to the relatives of BRS leaders. He also faulted the biased selection process to pick the beneficiaries.
