Telangana MP Slams Union Minister for ‘Divisive’ Remarks

Hyderabad, India – November 16, 2025 – Bhongir MP Chamala Kiran Kumar Reddy has strongly criticized Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Bandi Sanjay Kumar for what he calls “irresponsible and divisive” statements. Speaking to the media on Sunday, Reddy accused Sanjay of “forgetting the dignity of the office he holds” and continuing to make provocative remarks that incite religious and caste tensions.

Reddy specifically targeted Sanjay’s recent claim that all Hindus, regardless of political affiliation, should support the BJP. He countered this by pointing to the Congress party’s victory in the Jubilee Hills bypoll, where their candidate, Naveen Yadav, secured support from across various communities. He stated that the people of Telangana are capable of making their own decisions on who to vote for.

“Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy gave a ticket to a BC candidate, and the people embraced him,” Reddy said, highlighting the inclusive nature of the Congress party’s approach. He also reminded the minister that the BJP lost its deposit in a constituency represented by Union Minister G. Kishan Reddy.

Reddy urged the Union Ministers to prioritize securing funds for Telangana’s development rather than focusing on what he described as polarizing communities. He emphasized the need for responsible leadership and a focus on the well-being of the state’s diverse population.
