**Hyderabad, July 18, 2025** – Senior Congress leader and three-time MLA T. Jagga Reddy held a press conference at Gandhi Bhavan today, launching a blistering attack on the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), particularly targeting Working President K.T. Rama Rao (KTR).

Reddy demanded KTR explain the purpose and nature of alleged “secret meetings” with Andhra Pradesh IT Minister Nara Lokesh. He questioned whether these meetings were orchestrated at the behest of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), implying a potential conspiracy. “Is there any conspiracy and are you part of it?” he asked.

The Congress leader also responded sharply to BRS criticism regarding Chief Minister Revanth Reddy’s alleged reluctance to chant “Jai Telangana,” questioning why the BRS removed the word “Telangana” from its own party name. He accused the BRS of insulting Telangana and urged them to introspect before criticizing others.

Reddy further dismissed the BRS narrative that Revanth Reddy is a disciple of Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, pointing out that BRS leader KCR had served under Naidu in the past. “Before Mr. Revanth Reddy even entered the Assembly, KCR was a three-time MLA, Minister, and Deputy Speaker in the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) under Mr. Naidu. Should we not talk about that history?” he said.

Reddy asserted that KCR’s absence from Assembly sessions was due to his fear of facing scrutiny from Revanth Reddy, claiming that KCR lacks answers to questions about his decade-long rule. “After being in power for 10 years, questions will be asked, and KCR doesn’t have those answers for destroying Telangana.”

Finally, Reddy took a dig at senior BRS leader T. Harish Rao, labeling him a “great actor” and accusing him of making baseless allegations against Irrigation Minister N. Uttam Kumar Reddy, who is known for his integrity, and has served in the Indian Air Force as a fighter pilot. He claimed that Uttam Kumar Reddy is known for facing challenges bravely.
