The Hindu
Daggubati Purandeswari, BJP State President of Vijayawada, criticized Congress for lecturing on violence in Manipur. She noted that insurgency and casualties had dropped under Narendra Modi's govt. She also congratulated G. Kishan Reddy on becoming Telangana BJP president, wishing the party success under his leadership.
BJP State president Daggubati Purandeswari commented on the Twitter on Friday, July 21, that the Congress party had no right to “lecture on the violence in Manipur,” and that its track record was not to be forgotten.
Ms. Purandeswari asserted that insurgency and casualties dropped sharply under the Narendra Modi government. She wondered if Congress leader Rahul Gandhi could tell the difference between Manipur and Mizoram, and advised him to instead speak about the happenings in West Bengal and Rajasthan.
In a separate Tweet, Ms. Purandeswari congratulated G. Kishan Reddy on taking charge as Telangana BJP president, and hoped that the party would reach new heights under his stewardship.
