Nitin Nabin Telangana tour announced amid political criticism
During the press conference, Ramchander Rao also criticised AIMIM president and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi and the Congress. He alleged that both parties were spreading misinformation on citizenship and voter registration issues.
Referring to a Bombay High Court judgment, he reiterated that a passport was a travel document and not conclusive proof of citizenship. He also claimed that only Indian citizens were entitled to voting rights and accused the Congress and AIMIM of creating confusion over the voter registration process.
BJP Telangana general secretary Virender Goud, state treasurer Devaki Vasudeva Rao, state media in-charge and chief spokesperson N.V. Subhash, and other party leaders attended the press conference.
