Addressing a public rally earlier in Warangal, PM Modi came down heavily on Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao and the BRS government, as well as the Congress, over corruption.
He said the state was “trapped in a web of dynastic politics”.
“Both the BRS and the Congress are dangerous for people of Telangana”, PM Modi said, alleging that KCR was running the “most corrupt government.”
