BJP Rajya Sabha member and OBC all-India president K. Laxman has alleged that Telangana stood in fourth place in the country in suicide by farmers and he wanted to know whether Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) president and Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao wanted to replicate the same in other States by converting the party into Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) and playing a role in national politics.
“Mr. Chandrasekhar Rao claims that he wants to replicate Telangana model across the nation. Liquor shops and beer shops at every lane and bylane were promoted by the government in Telangana. Land mafia and sand mafia are thriving in the State. We need a government that is like in Uttar Pradesh led by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. He was able to get back ₹2,000, which was looted by mafia, to the exchequer by putting them down with an iron hand. His family members earn a living running small businesses. We need similar government here,” said Mr. Laxman while addressing a meeting of the OBC Morcha at Muttangi in Patancheru mandal on Tuesday.
Accusing the State government of failing to provide water to Sangareddy despite spending huge money, Mr. Laxman said that Mr. Chandrasekhar Rao had failed to fulfil the promises made during election campaign.
“Prime Minister is moving with a motto of ‘Sabka Saath and Sabka Vikas.’ He has been providing opportunity to every section. Only the BJP can take on Congress, TRS and MIM. We will repeat the result of Dubbak and Huzurabad at Munugode byelection,” he said.
Large number of party workers participated in the meeting.
