He said the Congress would encourage agriculture with necessary aid if voted to power. Kharge reiterated Congress’ stand and said, “BRS is B team of BJP”. Targeting CM KCR, the Congress president said that the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) government had failed in developing the state, he also said that KCR was indulging in making money.
Accusing KCR, Kharge said that BRS had looted the people of Telangana on the pretext of irrigation projects and other schemes, making Telangana a debt-ridden state with a deficit of Rs 3.6 trillion.
Highlighting the party stand between the BJP and the BRS, Kharge said that KCR and Modi had a secret pact between them, and the two only criticised each other in public to put a show, while behind closed doors, the two were hand in gloves with each other.
Underlining the six promises made by the party, Kharge said that Rythu Bharosa would ensure Rs 15,000 is paid to each farmer if the party comes to power in the state. He was quoted in the DC report as saying, “Chandrashekar Rao is facing bankruptcy by borrowing lakhs of crores in the name of construction projects. But under Chief Minister KCR, nothing has been done for Telangana. The Chief Minister also misused the funds allocated to SC, and STs by diverting them.”
