Nadda fires salvo at BRS; says change only in name, not in ‘neeti’ or ‘niyati’

BJP national president J.P. Nadda has come down heavily against the ruling Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), alleging that despite changing its name from Telangana Rashtra Samithi, it has not changed its ‘neeti’ and ‘niyati’.

He was speaking at a well-attended public meeting at the district headquarters here on Sunday, a day after party senior leaders Eatala Rajender and Komatireddy Rajagopal Reddy met Mr.Nadda in New Delhi and expressed displeasure over BJP going soft on the Telangana government.

Mr.Nadda urged people to vote for BJP if they wanted the nation to progress. In uncompromised terms, he said voting for BRS means protecting Chief Minister K.Chandrasekhar Rao, his family members and other leaders of the party. He also announced that Dharani Portal, which has created problems for farmers, will be abolished after the party comes to power in the State.
