Former PCC chief Ponnala Lakshmaiah said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s talk on curbing corruption or terming BRS as a corrupt party would remain hollow as long as no action was taken against Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao.
Speaking to reporters here, he said Mr. Modi owes an answer to Telangana for continuously speaking on corruption by the KCR government but not taking any action. He also lashed out at him for speaking lies about the Congress party’s contribution to the country.
He reminded Mr. Modi how Indira Gandhi encouraged M.S. Swaminathan, who recently passed away, to bring the Green Revolution in the country, providing food to 140 crore people and also exporting to several countries. The seeds planted by the Congress are now being enjoyed by the BJP and yet it is shameful that the PM doesn’t have the grace to acknowledge the Congress’s contribution.
