KCR has no moral right tocriticise defections: CM

Must read

Says BRS chief laid foundation for switching parties.

Declaring that former Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao has no moral right to criticise ‘defections,’ Chief Minister Revanth Reddy said that it is KCR who laid the foundation for defections. The CM said that KCR had engineered the defection of 61 MLAs, MLCs and MPs. Doesn’t he remember that? he asked. The CM asked KCR to apologise for engineering defections. “KTR and Harish Rao have been saying again and again that the Congress government will fall within a month. The BJP repeated it. The BRS and the BJP exceeded limits by saying that they would topple the Congress government. KCR’s emotional poverty makes him think that he can topple the Congress government. He has not opened his eyes to reality. The BRS’s vote share declined to just 16 per cent in the LS polls. KCR ensured the BJP’s victory to defeat the Congress. The BRS came third in Medak which they claimed was their fortress. What does it indicate when the BJP got most of the votes in Sircilla and Siddipet?” the CM said. He said that KCR who did not allow MLAs to meet him has opened the gates of his farmhouse now. The government invited KCR to State Formation Day celebrations.

However, BRS leaders are now saying that the government did not give KCR a chance to speak on Formation Day. “Is there any convention of the Leader of the Opposition speaking at Formation Day celebrations? There was no invitation for us when we were in the opposition,” the CM said. Making it clear that it was former Power Minister G. Jagdish Reddy who had sought a probe into power purchasing agreements, the CM said that the same Jagdish is now asking why a probe was ordered when the inquiry commission sent a letter to KCR. “Our mission is the state’s development. We are going to waive farm loans as per the word given by Rahul Gandhi to the people of Telangana. Sonia Gandhi fulfilled her word to create a Telangana state. Elections were held without any incident. The BRS has no right to criticise the government. We are moving forward upholding law and order. We have no issues with Andhra Pradesh. We have already resolved the Andhra Pradesh Bhavan issue with former CM Jagan Mohan Reddy. Now we will solve the remaining issues with the AP Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu. If not we will approach the appellate authority and the Centre or the courts,” the CM said. He said that the opposition had tried to make the Jeevan Reddy issue political. “They don’t understand the commitment Jeevan has towards the Congress. The party will make use of Jeevan Reddy as he is a senior leader,” the CM said. He said that his tenure as TPCC president ended on Thursday. “I have already told the high command to appoint a new TPCC President. Opposition parties are campaigning about cabinet expansion. However, there are efficient Ministers for every department. Education is with me. We conducted all exams well. We are moving forward with a specific plan. The media didn’t question KCR when he didn’t appoint ministers and took oath alone,” the CM said. He said that the admin is trying to get funds due to the state from the Centre.
