Fri Jan 31 15:35:11 UTC 2025: **Telangana’s Ruling and Opposition Parties Clash in Heated Exchange**
HYDERABAD, INDIA (February 1, 2025) – Telangana’s political landscape is heating up as Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy and opposition leader K. Chandrashekhar Rao (KCR) engaged in a fierce war of words. The conflict centers on the current Congress government’s performance and the previous BRS administration’s record.
KCR, emerging from a period of relative silence, criticized the Congress government’s governance, prompting a sharp retort from Reddy. Reddy challenged KCR to publicly debate the issues in the Assembly, dismissing KCR’s criticisms as detached from reality and fueled by a need for online validation. Reddy highlighted the Congress government’s swift implementation of a ₹21,000 crore farm loan waiver within 60 days, contrasting it with KCR’s ₹18,000 crore waiver implemented over 10 years. He likened KCR to a “demonetized ₹1,000 note,” highlighting a perceived loss of influence.
KCR, addressing party workers, countered that he is carefully observing the government’s actions and plans a strong public response in February, positioning the BRS as the only viable alternative for Telangana. He criticized the electorate for believing Congress campaign promises.
The escalating feud marks a significant escalation in Telangana’s political climate, with both leaders employing strong rhetoric and contrasting their respective administrations’ achievements.
