Hits out at Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao
Senior BJP leader and Union Minister for Tourism, Culture & North East States Development G. Kishan Reddy said he was ready for an open debate with Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao on the work and achievements of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government in the last seven years at the Telangana Martyrs Memorial in front of the Legislative Assembly.
“This should be moderated by senior journalists and should be done in a civil manner. I would also like to ask KCR if he is ready to make a Dalit the next chief minister of Telangana after the next polls as part of the revolutionary changes he has been talking about,” he questioned, addressing a press conference at the party office here on Tuesday.
The Chief Minister’s ‘revolutionary changes in TS’ were “not having a women minister for the first 5 years, no secretariat for official work, perpetuating family rule with his own son and nephew being ministers, not accessible to people even during floods or pandemic, preventing protests, attacking opponents and not standing by promises,” he said and wondered if he wanted to take these across the country.
