In a separate event on Sunday, PM Modi addressed a large gathering in Telangana’s Nirmal district, criticizing the ruling Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) ahead of the state’s assembly elections on November 30. Accusing the BRS of scams and betrayal, Modi expressed concern about Telangana’s mounting debt and irrigation scams.
Taking aim at Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao (KCR), PM Modi alleged a lack of concern for the state’s children, emphasizing KCR’s focus on his own family’s future. He remarked on KCR’s shift away from governance, stating, “Having handed over the steering of the car to some other party, KCR has shifted to his farmhouse.”
The Telangana Assembly elections present a three-cornered contest among the ruling BRS, the Congress, and the BJP. In the 2018 elections, the BRS, previously known as Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS), secured a significant victory with 88 out of 119 seats and 47.4% of the total vote share. The Congress won 19 seats, while the BJP did not secure any seats.
