SIDDIPET: With just a couple of days to go for the bypoll (November 3), BJP State president Bandi Sanjay on Saturday said he would hang himself if it is proven that the Central government didn’t give  Rs 240 crore for development work in the Dubbaka constituency.

He dared Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao to a debate in Dubbaka. Bandi added that both Finance Minister Harish Rao and KCR were “excellent liars”. On Saturday, he toured various villages in Thoguta mandal as part of the poll campaign. Bandi asked about the promise the CM had made about a job for every family and stated that not a single household had benefited so far.   

Funds for Haritha Haram and Vaikuntha Dhamams were being provided by the Centre, Bandi said. He scoffed at KCR’s opposition to the Farm Bills. The meters on agricultural pumpsets would in fact help farmers and keep a check on the TRS government, Bandi said. 

The BJP chief alleged that the Siddipet Police Commissioner was behaving like a TRS activist. He said KCR was not campaigning in Dubbaka because he knew that the TRS would lose. The blame would then fall on Harish who would be sidelined, predicted Bandi. BJP candidate M Raghunandan Rao and others were present at the campaign.
