Rajya Sabha member and senior BJP leader K. Laxman said that Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, contrary to his usual ‘acerbic style’, has been trying to win over people of Telangana with ‘emotional blackmail’ on alleged ‘conspiracies’ to dethrone his government.
“The Chief Minister is trying to cover up his government’s failures and divert people’s anger by trying to earn their sympathy by talking about the sinister moves of the Opposition to make his government fall. This is at a time when crops are drying up in farms and he is being questioned about the non-implementation of the guarantees promised,” he told a press conference at the BJP office on Friday.
Mr. Laxman claimed that if there is any threat to Mr. Revanth Reddy, it is from within his own party that is full of internal dissensions and different groups. “His (CM) party seniors like V. Hanumantha Rao are openly stating that he is being criticised for supporting the Chief Minister. We respect the people’s will and want this government to continue in power for five years and implement the promises made,” he said.
