‘KTR targeted after CM’s Delhi visit’: BRS leader K Kavitha

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], December 24 (ANI): BRS MLC Kalvakuntla Kavitha accused the Congress government in Telangana of functioning under the BJP's influence, alleging collusion between the two parties to target regional forces and suppress opposition voices.
Addressing the media at Telangana Bhavan, on Monday, Kavitha highlighted a pattern of political conspiracy. She claimed that recent cases against BRS Working President K.T. Rama Rao (KTR) were politically motivated and part of a vendetta campaign orchestrated after Chief Minister Revanth Reddy met with BJP leaders in Delhi.
She noted that the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) case against KTR was swiftly followed by Enforcement Directorate (ED) action, all occurring immediately after CM Revanth Reddy's Delhi visit. "This sequence of events exposes the Congress-BJP nexus aimed at eliminating regional leaders like KCR, who continue to fight for the people," she asserted.
The daughter of BRS Supremo, Kavitha accused CM Revanth Reddy of unleashing "vendetta politics" and prioritising opposition crackdowns over governance. She alleged that "controversy surrounding actor Allu Arjun was deliberately stirred to distract the public from the government's failures".
Further, labelling the Congress administration a "10 per cent commission government," former MP from Nizamabad Kavitha charged it with "favouring corporate interests while neglecting welfare programs". The BRS leader criticised the clearance of bills worth thousands of crores for companies like Megha Krishna Reddy while withholding funds for crucial welfare schemes.
During her media address, highlighting the tragic deaths of 57 children in Gurukuls due to food poisoning, Kavitha demanded Rs 25 lakh compensation for each affected family. Kavitha also slammed delays in loan waivers, leaving farmers in distress.
She accused the Congress government of mortgaging Telangana's interests to the World Bank, undoing KCR's decade-long efforts to keep the state financially independent. She criticised the silence of Communist parties on this issue, calling their inaction hypocritical.
Kavitha accused the "Congress government of failing to launch a single new development project in its first year". She pointed out that critical projects like the Palamuru-Rangareddy Lift Irrigation Scheme remain incomplete due to lack of funding, despite promises to prioritize them.
The BRS leader also slammed the government for failing to implement the Mahalakshmi scheme, which promised Rs 2,500 monthly assistance to women. "Women are owed Rs30,000 each, yet the government has turned its back on them," she stated. She further criticized the reduction in buses for women's free transport, leaving women and students stranded.
While sharing the way forward to respond to Congress's misgovernance in Telangana, Kavitha announced an action plan to expose the Congress government's failures and pledged to oppose its policies that harm Telangana's identity. She vowed to install Telangana Talli statues in every village as a symbol of the state's resilience.
When asked about contesting from Jagityal, Kavitha emphasized her commitment to addressing issues state-wide, asserting that Telangana Jagruthi and BRS remain united in their mission to protect Telangana's interests.
"The Congress government has betrayed Telangana's aspirations. We will not allow them to destroy the state's identity and progress," Kavitha asserted in her media interaction. (ANI)
