In his speech, Modi took apparent potshots at the ruling TRS in Telangana, saying it has 'betrayed' the people and asserted the 'Lotus will bloom' everywhere in the state. He also noted the recent bypoll for the Munugode Assembly seat as an indication of BJP's rising influence in the state. PM's statement comes ahead of the 2023 Assembly elections in the state, where the BJP is seeking to challenge the TRS govt.
