Hyderabad: BRS working president KTR challenges Revanth Reddy to arrest him, stating that the Chief Minister lacked the courage to act because the Race case held no evidence. Moreover, he said he committed no wrongdoing and stood ready to take a lie detector test to prove his stand. He addressed the media at Telangana Bhavan and sharply criticised the Congress Government for misusing issues to distract the public.
During the briefing, KTR claimed that the Chief Minister knew the case carried no substance. As a result, he said the ruling party relied on political drama instead of facts. Additionally, he argued that the government tried to frame leaders instead of addressing core governance concerns.
KTR challenges Revanth on MLA resignations and political manoeuvres
KTR made strong remarks on the issue of MLAs switching parties. He alleged that the Congress leadership pushed D. Nagender to resign only to protect MLA Kadiyam Srihari. Furthermore, he said the government feared a loss of public image if the Speaker disqualified defected MLAs. He claimed the ruling party wanted to avoid that risk and staged a resignation drama to gain time.
He argued that the government planned to force early bypolls by making MLAs resign ahead of any disqualification. In addition, he said this tactic showed the administration’s attempt to escape difficult political questions. He maintained that these strategic moves reflected the Congress party’s insecurity.
KTR challenges Revanth and predicts GHMC elections before the bypolls
KTR predicted that the GHMC elections would arrive before any bypolls. He said the government used strategic timing to divert public attention from civic and economic issues. Moreover, he argued that the ruling party created confusion to weaken opposition voices. He added that the Congress Government failed to focus on governance and instead preferred political manoeuvring.
KTR said people understood the pattern and would respond when elections arrived. He insisted that the state needed clarity, fairness and stable leadership rather than staged controversies. He concluded that the opposition would continue raising concerns to protect democratic accountability.
