Bharatiya Janata Legislative Party (BJLP) leader Alleti Maheshwar Reddy alleged that the Congress and BRS parties colluded with each other and hence there are no cases against the BRS leaders.
Alleging that the Congress has the history of dethroning several governments, Maheshwar Reddy found fault with IT Minister D Sridhar Babu for commenting that the BRS and BJP colluded with each other to dethrone the Congress government. He alleged that Sridhar Babu was making baseless allegations. He said that the BJP has no need to dethrone the Congress government. Congress has a history of running the government in alliance with the BRS, he pointed out. However, the BJP had no understanding with the BRS at any time. BRS and Congress are enemy parties to the BJP, he said.
Alleging that Sridhar Babu was intentionally speaking to defame the BJP, Maheshwar Reddy said that his comments show his political bankruptcy. He said that the Congress dethroned non-Congress governments when it was in power using Article 356 for 90 times. The Congress has a history of dethroning the NTR’s government in 1984 in erstwhile Andhra Pradesh. However, the BJP never used Article 356 to dethrone the State governments, he said.
Maheshwar Reddy on Monday said that the Congress also has a history of changing the c
chief ministers. It changed four CMs in between 1978 and 1983, three CMs in between 1989 and 1994 and two CMs in between 2009 and 2013. Changing of chief ministers is Congress party’s attitude, he said, making it clear that he has information that the Congress high command is planning to change CM Revanth Reddy.
“I spoke about this only with the media. However, Sridhar Babu sees it as a strategy to dethrone Congress government and it shows his eyesight and his political bankruptcy. Are differences between CM and DCM correct or not? Was it true or not that CM Revanth Reddy announced that the cost of the Musi Cleansing Project was Rs 1.5 lakh crore. However, Deputy CM Bhatti said that there was no such thing in the actual DPR? Is it true or not that there are differences between CM and DCM?”, he asked.
Maheshwar Reddy asked Sridhar Babu whether there are differences between Ministers and CM in regard to the induction of 10 BRS MLAs? Is it correct or not that Rahul Gandhi is denying the appointment to CM Revanth Reddy? Is it correct or not that the original Congress ministers formed as one group and the remaining ministers, who came from TDP and BRS, formed as another group? In this context there is discussion on the change of the Chief Minister, Maheshwar Reddy said.
