14/10/2023 hnknews.com

Telangana: Telangana’s BRS working president KTR has accused the Congress party of pumping crores of rupees into the state to purchase votes in the upcoming Assembly elections.

Sharing a news report about the seizure of around Rs 42 crore from a BJP corporator’s residence during Income Tax raids in Karnataka, KTR took to social media to call out the Congress party.

He accused the “intellectually bankrupt” Congress of pumping crores of rupees from Karnataka to purchase votes in Telangana, which is set to go to polls on December 3.

“Their PCC Cheap was the one who was caught on camera bribing in Vote for Note scam and now since this criminal is now leading the pack of Thugs, this was very much expected. Let’s say No to ‘Scamgress’ in TS,” he tweeted.

KTR’s comments come at a time when the Congress party is trying to make inroads in Telangana. The party has recently appointed A. Revanth Reddy as its state president. Reddy, a former TDP leader, is known for his aggressive style of politics.

The Telangana Assembly elections are expected to be a close contest between the ruling BRS and the BJP. The Congress party is hoping to play the role of a kingmaker in the elections.

Kamareddy and Gajwel Wait for KCR’s Knockout

12/10/2023 hnknews.com

The next 50 days in Kamareddy and Gajwel will be a whirlwind of activity, as the BRS launches a campaign blitzkrieg to ensure a record majority for its candidate, K Chandrashekhar Rao.

The BJP is said to be preparing to field Huzurabad MLA Etala Rajender from Gajwel and Nizamabad MP Arvind Dharmapuri from Kamareddy. The party has reportedly assured the leaders that if they do not win, they will be given a chance to contest the Lok Sabha elections next year.

While the BJP may try to make some noise, the Congress is in a shambles. The party is silent, uncertain, and devoid of any fighting spirit. Eight candidates, including former MLA Narsa Reddy, have applied for tickets from Gajwel, and there is rampant infighting.

Though there was some talk that top Congress leaders like TPCC president A Revanth Reddy should contest from these constituencies to boost the cadre’s morale, leaders point out that the party’s big guns are busy securing for themselves constituencies where there wouldn’t be much of risk for them.

In conclusion, KCR is expected to win easily in both Kamareddy and Gajwel. The BJP may try to make some noise, but the Congress is in no position to challenge the BRS.
