Union Home Minister Amit Shah urged the people of Telangana to elect a government that operates on a “double engine” model, emphasizing its benefits for the poor, Adivasis, farmers, Dalits, women, unemployed youth, and other marginalized groups.
He criticized Chief Minister K.Chandrashekar Rao, alleging that the BRS government primarily serves the interests of Rao’s family and is currently focused on appointing K.T.Rama Rao as the Chief Minister.
Speaking at a gathering called ‘Jana Garjana Sabha’ at the DIET Ground, Shah paid tribute to Adivasi leader Komaram Bheem and encouraged the public to unseat the current government and bring the BJP into power.
His speech mainly revolved around Adivasis and the schemes implemented for them by the BJP-led government at the Centre.
Shah dismissed Rao’s claims of Telangana’s superiority in various fields, citing incidents of crimes against women, farmer suicides, inadequate access to safe drinking water, selective distribution of Dalit Bandhu aid, and failure to provide housing.
He announced that the BJP government would officially commemorate September 17 as Hyderabad Liberation Day in all districts, emphasizing the historical significance of Telangana’s fight for independence.
Accusing the KCR government of being influenced by the MIM, Shah claimed that power in the state is shared between the Congress, TRS, and MIM, with KCR’s main goal being to install his son KTR as the Chief Minister.
Shah highlighted recent initiatives by Prime Minister Modi, such as the establishment of a turmeric board and Sammakka Sarakka Central Tribal University, as well as efforts to resolve the Krishna water dispute, as evidence of the BJP’s commitment to the state’s welfare.
He emphasized that it was Narendra Modi who provided free Covid-19 vaccines to protect the people, praising Modi’s leadership.
Several prominent leaders including Union Minister G.Kishan Reddy, MP Bandi Sanjay, and others were present at the event.
