HYDERABAD: Former Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, on Saturday, September 4, 2021, exuded confidence BJP State president Bandi Sanjay Kumar’s Praja Sangrama Yatra would change Telangana’s destiny and bring the party to power in 2024. The yatra was drawing huge crowds who were angry with the ruling TRS and showering their blessings on the BJP, he said.
On the eighth day of Sanjay Kumar’s yatra which entered Vikarabad on Saturday, Fadnavis said that TRS had won earlier elections since voters felt there was no viable alternative. However, now they saw a powerful force in the saffron party which they would vote to power. He rubbished Congress claims that the TRS and BJP were working hand-in-glove.
Stating that when he was the CM of Maharashtra, 10 lakh houses were built for the poor under Pradhan Mantri Awaz Yojna, he questioned how many were built by Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao during his tenure. He alleged that the State government was obstructing the Centre’s schemes in the State and diverting funds.
‘BJP not against Muslims’
Clarifying that BJP was not against Muslims, Fadnavis said that the CM was trying to reduce reservations of tribals to increase reservations for Muslims, which was against the spirit of Constitution. He also questioned as to what was stopping KCR from observing September 17 as the Telangana Liberation Day.
‘Dharani portal faulty’
He stated that KCR spending more time at his farmhouse and was clearly intent on making his son K Taraka Rama Rao the CM. Fadnavis accused the TRS government of cancelling subsidies to farmers, not waiving off loans and bringing out a faulty land records portal from which several records of genuine farmers were removed.
