Hyderabad: Former Minister and Suryapet BRS MLA Guntakandla Jagadish Reddy on Friday accused the Congress government of reckless governance. He asserted that Congress’s rule had set in as the regime lost public confidence in its ability to return to power.
Addressing a meeting of party workers at his camp office in Suryapet, Jagadish Reddy said Telangana was witnessing rapid deterioration under the Congress government. He contrasted the present administration with the previous BRS regime. He stated that the State experienced all-round development during the 10-year tenure of former Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao. In contrast, the last two years of Congress rule had pushed Telangana into distress.
He alleged that Congress ministers and MLAs were focused on corruption. They had failed to ensure even necessities such as irrigation and drinking water. Jagadish Reddy claimed people were complaining that they were no longer receiving benefits that were available during the BRS government.
Congress rule decline reflects in broken promises, says Jagadish Reddy
Questioning the government’s unfulfilled assurances, the former minister asked when pensions would be increased. He inquired when the promised ₹1 lakh and one tola of gold would be provided for girls’ marriages. He also sought clarity on commitments made to women, students and unemployed youth.
Jagadish Reddy urged people to question Congress leaders when they approach voters. He called on party workers to remain united. Expressing confidence in the future, he said the BRS would return to power in the coming elections. This would be through patience, discipline and collective effort.
