**Youth Leaders Flock to Telangana Jagruthi; Kavitha Criticizes Chief Minister**
*Hyderabad, June 28, 2025* – Several youth and student leaders from key constituencies including Kukatpally, Serilingampally, Jubilee Hills, and Patancheru, have joined Telangana Jagruthi, bolstering the organization’s ranks. The induction ceremony, held earlier today in Hyderabad, was presided over by Telangana Jagruthi President and Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) MLC, K. Kavitha.
During the event, Kavitha emphasized Telangana Jagruthi’s historical role in safeguarding the region’s cultural identity, tracing its origins back to 2006 when it was founded by herself and BRS founder-president K. Chandrasekhar Rao. She asserted that the organization emerged from the ideologies of Prof. K. Jayashankar and K. Chandrasekhar Rao and was created to counter what she described as the “cultural onslaught of Seemandhra leaders” within the united Andhra Pradesh.
Kavitha directed pointed criticism at current Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, stating that it was “unfortunate” that someone who had never voiced support for the “Jai Telangana” slogan now leads the state. She further alleged that Reddy’s political strategy relies heavily on “filthy language against his political opponents,” implying a lack of substantive leadership.
The move is seen by political analysts as a significant strengthening of Telangana Jagruthi’s base, particularly among the younger generation.
