NEW DELHI: The joining of Rajagopal Reddy in the BJP is the beginning of the uprooting of the K. Chandrashekar Rao government in Telangana, said senior BJP leader Amit Shah during a rally in the state’s Munugode assembly constituency on Sunday.
Byelection is being held in Munugode after sitting Congress MLA Komatireddy Rajagopal Reddy resigned from his post in the party recently and joined the BJP.
“Rajagopal Reddy joining the party means this is the beginning of the end for the KCR government. If Rajagopal Reddy wins, KCR’s government will disappear,” said Shah.
The Union home minister also accused the KCR government of not reducing VAT on petrol as a result of which there has been a “spike in inflation in Telangana”.
Shah further alleged that KCR was not celebrating Telangana Liberation Day officially due to fear of Majlis (Muslim political party) and said that the when the BJP comes to power in the state, it would organise it officially on September 17.
‘People unhappy with KCR govt: BJP
Meanwhile, the party’s national general secretary Tarun Chugh said the people are “unhappy with the KCR government”.
“Atrocities and violence are happening all over the state and the people are scared in such environment. They want a change which only the BJP will bring,” said Chugh.
BJP Rajya Sabha MP K Laxman said that Telangana politics would shift as a result of the Munugode by-election, “the people are fed up with the TRS party’s dominance and want Telangana to change, which can only be accomplished by the BJP”.
“People used to believe that Congress would be an alternative, but after watching the politics at the federal level, all of the regional parties under the Congress umbrella have united with BJP to oppose Congress,” Laxman said.
The BJP rally comes a day after chief minister KCR went to Munugode to launch Telangana Rashtra Samithi‘s (TRS) campaign for the upcoming Munugode byelection.
