BRS working president K.T. Rama Rao said the BRS party chief K. Chandrasekhar Rao in the last one decade had put all his energies to take the State on the path of development from a stage where Telangana was completely ruined
Bharat Rashtra Samithi working president K. T. Rama Rao has said that the people of Telangana had not completely rejected the party in the Assembly elections.
“We should all realise that the voters have not completely rejected us,” Mr. Rama Rao said, adding that the enthusiasm among the cadres was intact and the same spirit should continue till the Parliamentary elections. “Let’s all focus our energies on the Lok Sabha elections leaving behind the Assembly outcome,” he remarked.
Addressing the party leaders and cadres at the Warangal Lok Sabha Parliamentary constituency preparatory meeting on Wednesday, Mr. Rao said the BRS party chief K. Chandrasekhar Rao in the last one decade had put all his energies to take the State on the path of development from a stage where Telangana was completely ruined.
“No one else had struggled so hard like KCR to improve the rural economy and devoted 99 per cent time for administration and all-round development of the State,” he said, adding that because of this, he spared little time for the party affairs.
“We will from now onwards hold more meetings and go ahead. We were under the impression that people are with us but our leaders, who were always accessible to the people, lost elections in Warangal district, which is known as the land of revolution,” the BRS working president said.
KTR said the review meetings were evoking good response and lot of suggestions were coming from the leaders to improve the party’s performance. “We are confident of strengthening the party further by ensuing Parliamentary elections,” he said.
Referring to the Congress party’s six guarantees, KTR said they were not guarantees but ‘420 promises’. “You all should keep on reminding the people that these are 420 promises,” he remarked.

In , the grape capital of India and host of the Simhastha Kumbh Mela every 12 years, environmental concerns over a plan to cut 1,800 trees for the proposed Sadhugram project in the historic Tapovan area have sharpened political fault lines ahead of local body elections. The issue has pitted both Sena factions against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which leads the ruling Mahayuti alliance in Maharashtra. While Eknath Shinde, Deputy Chief Minister and Shiv Sena chief, and Uddhav Thackeray, chief of the Shiv Sena (UBT), remain political rivals, their parties have found rare common ground in Tapovan, where authorities propose clearing trees across 34 acres to build Sadhugram and a MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions) hub, as part of a ₹300-crore infrastructure push linked to the pilgrimage.
