BRS Working President K. Taraka Rama Rao (KTR) declared today that a state-wide revolt against the Congress government has commenced, fueled by public anger over broken promises and administrative failures. Speaking at the ‘Atmiya Sammelanam’ of newly elected BRS Sarpanches and Upa-Sarpanches at the PSR Convention Centre, KTR asserted that the people of Telangana are ready to teach the current regime a fitting lesson.

The event was attended by prominent BRS leaders, including MP Vaddiraju Ravichandra, MLC Ravinder Rao, District Party President Kavitha, former Minister Satyavathi Rathod, former MP Vinod Kumar, and several former MLAs.

Farmers Betrayed by “Deceitful” Governance

KTR launched a scathing attack on Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, labeling him a “deceitful leader” who has deprived farmers of their rightful dues. “In just two years, this government has dodged the Rythu Bandhu investment support twice,” KTR said. He contrasted this with the BRS tenure, noting that under KCR’s leadership, ₹72,000 crores were directly credited to farmers’ accounts across 11 installments without any delays.

He further accused the Congress leadership of winning through deception. “Revanth Reddy misled the public by taking oaths in the names of gods and top Congress leaders like Sonia, Rahul, and Priyanka Gandhi, only to betray every segment of society after coming to power,” he remarked.

Responding to verbal attacks on BRS President KCR, KTR stated that while he possesses the linguistic ability to retaliate in Telugu, Hindi, English, he maintains restraint out of respect for the office of the Chief Minister. He criticized Revanth Reddy for focusing on personal attacks and “time-pass” politics through endless commissions and cases like Formula-E and phone tapping, rather than governance. “We handed over a golden state, but they don’t even know how to run it,” he added.

KTR hailed the “spectacular victory” of BRS-backed candidates in the recent Gram Panchayat elections despite the ruling party’s alleged high-handedness. He lauded the grass-roots workers who stood firm even when senior leaders like Kadiyam Srihari defected for power. KTR announced that a ‘Legal Cell’ and training programs would be established in every district to protect BRS Sarpanches from Congress-led harassment. He reminded Sarpanches that 75% of funds from the Center flow directly to Panchayats and are not the “personal property” of the state government. “A Sarpanch is as much a constitutional authority for a village as a CM is for the state,” he emphasized.

The BRS leader highlighted that the government’s retreat on the Lagacharla land issue was a direct result of the party’s massive protest in Mahabubabad. He credited KCR for converting thandas into Gram Panchayats and bringing medical colleges to remote districts.
In a poignant closing, KTR criticized the Congress for neglecting the legacy of Nukala Ramachandra Reddy. He stated that while KCR decided to honor the veteran leader with a statue, it is an insult to his soul that “Delhi slaves” who secured their posts through “money bags” are now unveiling it.
KTR concluded by calling the Panchayat results a “League Match” victory, urging the cadre to win the upcoming “Semi-Finals” (Municipal, ZPTC, MPTC elections) to pave the way for the “Finals”—reinstalling KCR as the Chief Minister.
