Hyderabad: The voters of Maharashtra understood the false campaign carried by the Congress-led Maha Vikas Agadi, rejected them in Assembly polls and gave a landslide victory for BJP-led Mahayuti. It is perhaps the first major victory for the BJP after the Bombay state was divided as Maharashtra and Gujarat in 1960, said BJP Telangana president and Union minister G. Kishan Reddy.
Addressing a press conference on Saturday, Kishan Reddy said that the financial capital of the country had realised that the Congress was the source of all evil. “Though the BJP got some setback in the last Lok Sabha polls following the false campaign by Congress on reservations, the Maratha voters reposed full faith in Mahayuti within five months. People have rejected the false narratives set by Rahul Gandhi.”
“Mahayuti got more SC and ST reserved seats even though the Congress leaders went to people with Constitution books and unleashed false campaigns that the BJP will remove reservations,” he explained.
The Congress is now confined to only three states. The people in BJP-ruled states reposed trust in double-engine government for record third and fourth times, Kisshan Reddy. The voters had rejected Udhav Thackeray as political heir for Balasaheb Thackeray, realising his deviation from the ideology of the Shiv Sena chief. The voters have also rejected the strong old man Sharad Pawar as he is facing the final defeat in his political career, Kishan Reddy said.
BJP vice president D.K. Aruna said that the conspiracies hatched by Congress leaders, including Revanth Reddy, failed to work before Maharashtra voters, who have rejected the party. BJP MP Etala Rajendar advised Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy to take Maharashtra verdict as a lesson and realise that the false promises and divisive mindset cannot help them sustain for long in politics. He asked Revanth Reddy to focus on fulfilling the poll promises.
