Congress leaders are happy as BRS leaders have been speaking more about their declarations frequently than Congress leaders.
Congress leaders are of the opinion that they have succeeded in making BRS leaders speak about Congress declarations.
Speaking to ‘The Pioneer,’ TPCC official spokesperson Boreddy Ayodya Reddy said that Telangana Congress leaders are happy as people have started believing in the Congress declarations.
Ayodya Reddy said that people have connected to the waiver of loans up to Rs 2 lakh and the scrapping of the Dharani Portal in the Rythu Declaration announced in Warangal by Rahul Gandhi. The Rs 4,000 pension scheme and the unemployment allowance scheme in the Youth Declaration announced by AICC General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi have also attracted people in a big way, he said, adding that SCs and STs have connected to enhancement of reservations for SCs and STs and the Rs 12 lakh Dalit Girijan Bandhu that promised to give Rs 10,000 to Dalit and tribal students if they pass Class 10, Rs15,000 to students who pass Inter, Rs 25,000 to students who have completed degree and Rs 1 lakh to those who have completed PG. The promise to restore lands assigned to SCs and STs which were seized by the BRS government back to the assignees with all rights has attracted SCs and STs, he said.
Congress leaders are jubilant as BRS leaders including Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao and almost all the Ministers, MLAs, MPs and MLCs are criticising the Congress’ declarations.
TPCC Senior Vice-President Dr Mallu Ravi said that BRS leaders were speaking madly about the Congress’ SC, ST Declaration as it got an unexpected response from the public.
TPCC Vice-President Chamala Kiran Kumar Reddy told ‘The Pioneer’ that BRS leaders were criticising the Congress’ declarations as they are afraid of defeat in the elections. He said that BRS leaders are now taking Congress’ declarations to the people.
The Congress is already half successful even before release of the election schedule and the Congress will achieve full success after the announcement of the remaining declarations, that is, the declarations for OBCs, Women and other declarations.
“The Congress has a habit of implementing assurances and we are implementing our assurances in Karnataka. The Congress will implement its assurances in Telangana too after coming to power,” he said.
