BRS To Launch KCR Bharosa Campaign: KTR

Hyderabad: The BRS is all set to launch a major push to take its vision and plans for Telangana state during the third term of its party president K. Chandrashekar Rao as the Chief Minister of the state with a ‘KCR Bharosa’ campaign.

Party’s working president and minister K.T. Rama Rao said on Wednesday that the campaign will be all about what the KCR government has done for the people and achieved for the state so far, and what the future plans are.

The KCR Bharosa plan will see BRS workers and leaders fan out across the state and explain to the people about the party’s manifesto for the coming elections. Rama Rao said each of the party’s promises in the manifesto will be informed to the people.

The BRS working president was addressing Congress leaders and workers from Peddapalli district who joined the ruling party on Wednesday at the Telangana Bhavan, the BRS headquarters.

Those who joined the BRS on Wednesday included Congress party leaders C. Satyanarayana Reddy, Vemula Rammurthy, and several other Congress leaders and workers from Peddapalli. “If you go to villages and ask about our party, people will say ‘Telangana party’ not TRS or BRS. That is the connection people have with our party. The other parties do not have such an emotional connection with the people,” he said.

Rama Rao also slammed the Congress calling it a “tried, tested, and dusted” and that it was high time for that party’s president Mallikarjun Kharge to show “us one state governed by Congress which is better than Telangana. The Congress, which is a bekaar, and nakaam party will be rejected. “And the fact is no one sees Kharge as that party’s president because Rahul Gandhi is there,” he said.

He said people should be wary of the Congress which has failed to keep any of its promises in Karnataka. “The government there is barely able to supply five hours of power and here we have the Telangana Congress president who says three hours of power supply is enough for farmers. Farmers in Telangana should give thought to whether they want three hours of power or 24 hours of power as now. If power is placed in the hands of the inept and useless Congress, all that we have achieved so far will be lost,” he said.
