    Constituency-level plenary of BRS on 25 April

    Warangal: The BRS will organise constituency-level plenary at Palakurthi on April 25, Minister for Panchayat Raj and Rural Development Errabelli Dayakar Rao said. Speaking to party leaders at Thorrur on Wednesday, he told them to mobilise all the cadres for the plenary. He said that the aim of the plenary is to disseminate the welfare and developmental programmes implemented by the BRS Government. He also emphasised the need for retorting the Opposition parties, who resorted to defaming the BRS Government on social media platforms. “It’s high time to hit back at the BJP-led Central Government which was trying to dilute the MGNREGS,” Errabelli said. He also found fault with the Centre, accusing it of meting out step-motherly treatment to Telangana.

    In another programme, the minister said that the onus is on people to protect the TSRTC. Inaugurating super luxury services to Hyderabad from Thorrur on Wednesday, he urged people to continue their patronage to the TSRTC. “The responsibility is also on employees to protect the RTC by supporting the initiatives taken up by the Telangana Government. The RTC ran into losses due to the ineffective policies of the establishment in the undivided Andhra Pradesh. The successive governments then encouraged private travels of the Andhra region; thereby pushing the RTC into a debt trap,” Errabelli said.

    Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao is hell-bent on bringing back the past glory of the RTC, besides addressing all the problems of its employees, Errabelli said. He assured the locals of modernising the Thorrur bus station by constructing new platforms etc. He directed the RTC officials to keep the bus station clean. It may be noted here that the newly launched RTC super luxury buses bound for Hyderabad will start at 4.20 am and 5 am every day from Thorrur. TSRTC regional manager Srilatha, deputy regional manager M Krupakar Reddy and depot manager Parimala were among others present.

    Corruption has become identity of Telangana government: Nadda

    Hyderabad: BJP national President J.P. Nadda on Friday termed Telangana’s BRS government as Bhrashtachar Rishwat Sarkar and said that it has no right to remain in power.

    “This has become the identity of Telangana government. This BRS party has become Bhrashtachar Rishwat Sarkar,” he said while virtually inaugurating new BJP offices in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.

    He recalled that when Telangana was formed in 2014, it was a surplus state but today the state finds itself in a debt of Rs 3.29 lakh crore.

    Nadda ridiculed the tall claims made when Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) became Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), saying it has changed its name but it has not changed its ways.

    The BJP chief referred to the summons of the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to CM KCR’s daughter Kavitha in Delhi liquor scam case. “This is an unfortunate situation. Telangana’s image has become of a corrupt state,” he said

    Stating that mere change of name does not work, Nadda said people of Telangana knew that the TRS and the BRS are same. “People of Telangana are giving a message to you. You need VRS (voluntary retirement scheme),” he said.
