Hyderabad: The KTR Congress six guarantees attack intensified on Friday as BRS working president K.T. Rama Rao accused the State government of betraying the public by failing to implement its poll promises.
Rama Rao, along with deputy floor leader T Harish Rao, party MLAs and MLCs, staged a protest in Hyderabad against the Revanth Reddy government. They alleged that the Congress failed to deliver on its ‘Six Guarantees’ despite making time-bound commitments.
During the protest, the leaders displayed “Dues Cards” to highlight what they called unfulfilled promises. They said the exercise exposed how the ruling party misled the public.
Rama Rao said the government did not implement key assurances, including pensions, unemployment benefits, and financial assistance schemes. He questioned the status of Rs.54,000 dues to persons with disabilities and the elderly.
He also flagged the pending Rs.24,000 promised to auto-rickshaw drivers. In addition, he raised concerns over the commitment to create two lakh jobs for unemployed youth.
KTR Congress six guarantees attack targets welfare schemes
Expanding the KTR Congress six guarantees attack, Rama Rao criticised flagship schemes such as ‘Mahalakshmi’ and ‘Rythu Bharosa’. He said delays and non-implementation of these programmes pushed the State into disorder.
He further alleged that the government neither allocated sufficient funds nor provided statutory backing for its guarantees. He said the Congress had promised to implement these measures within 100 days of assuming power.
Rama Rao warned that the BRS would continue to mount pressure on the government. He said the party would raise these issues in both the Assembly and the Legislative Council.
He said, “The bond papers you signed and submitted have today become mere writings on water.”
He added, “During the sessions of the Legislative Assembly and Legislative Council, we will confront you at every step on behalf of people of the state.”
He further said, “If you fail to uphold your promises, there is absolutely no question of letting you off the hook.”
The protest marked an escalation in political confrontation between the BRS and the Congress government over the implementation of welfare guarantees and electoral commitments.
