Congress failed to honour poll promises, alleges Laxman

BJP Rajya Sabha MP and OBC Morcha national president K Laxman has launched a scathing attack on the Congress government, calling its failure to fulfill electoral promises a testament to its inefficiency and deception. Addressing a press conference at the BJP state office, Laxman alleged that Congress leaders themselves have admitted their inability to implement the guarantees given to the people.
“Congress leaders openly admitting that they cannot implement their promises is proof of their incompetence. This government deceived the people with false guarantees to win power and is now trying to escape from its commitments,” he said.
Laxman accused the Congress of betraying not just Telangana but also Karnataka and Himachal Pradesh. He pointed out that in Haryana and Maharashtra, the people rejected the Congress due to its history of broken promises, and he predicted a similar fate for the party in Delhi.
Slamming the Congress for making extravagant commitments before the elections, he said, “They gave six guarantees, made 66 promises, and 420 commitments before the elections, only to dump them after coming to power.” He highlighted the plight of retired employees in Telangana, alleging that their benefits, including GPF, gratuity, and commutation bills, have been kept pending despite court notices.
On the issue of BC reservations, Laxman accused the Congress of backtracking on its Kamareddy Declaration promises and demanded that the government implement 42% reservations for BCs before conducting local body elections. He also criticized the previous BRS government’s policies, claiming that BJP was the only party that fought against GO 317, which affected teachers.
Urging people to vote against the Congress in the upcoming MLC elections, Laxman said, “If this government is not held accountable, it will continue to trouble employees, the unemployed, and students. The BJP will stand as the voice of the people to ensure their rights.”
