Congress will fulfil Telangana people's aspirations: Priyanka Gandhi

Adilabad: Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra urged the electorate in Telangana to give one chance to the Congress and said that the party will show you what development actually means.

She was addressing a public meeting at Khanapur in Nirmal district, held as part of the Congress Vijayabheri this afternoon.

She promised to waive off loans of over 2 lakh farmers after coming to power. Under the BRS rule, the aspirations of Telangana people had not been fulfilled even when separate state was carved out, she said. She slammed BRS president and Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao for failing to generate employment for the youth in the state, while ensuring plum jobs to all his family members.
