The Sircilla MLA also said that BRS winning more than 4,000 gram panchayats indicates to changing political dynamics in the state.
“People were against the Congress because it hoodwinked all sections of the people in the last 24 months. Governance was collapsed in all sectors,” he said and added that the Congress will receive a rude shock in the forthcoming municipal polls.
The BRS leader alleged that the state government failed to “spend even a rupee” in urban areas because of which municipalities are facing several problems.
