Expressing his disgust towards the present nature of politics, BRS executive president and former minister KT Rama Rao revealed that at one stage he wanted to quit politics. He interacted with netizens on the social media platform ‘X’ under the name ‘Ask KTR’ (#AskKTR) and answered many of their questions.
“In the current politics, even family members are not spared. I still don’t understand why they are being dragged into politics. We did nothing like this when we were in power. In my 18 years of public life, my family members and children have suffered a lot. At one point, I wanted to quit politics. But I decided to stand up and fight for the people,” KTR replied to another question asked by netizens.
‘‘BRS chief KCR is healthy. He is guiding us every day. After 2025, KCR will come out to the people in a big way. He is giving time to implement the 420 promises made by the Congress party. As a responsible opposition leader, KCR is giving time to the government”, he added.
“We lost the elections because of the discord that comes after 10 years of being in power,” KTR replied to a netizen’s question. He alleged that Congress party’s false promises have raised false hopes among the people.
“To be honest, the Congress government has done nothing good for the people so far. We will not leave the party that came to power on false promises until it fulfills all the promises it made. We will make the government accountable to the people,” he told netizens.
KTR alleged that Hydra was being used only to blackmail builders and businessmen and extort money. He objected that no action was being taken against the bigwigs except targeting the poor and middle class. He criticized that the stage is being set for a big scam in the country in the form of the Musi project.
KTR said that just like Group-1, they will stand by Group-4 candidates and try to ensure that the government fulfills the promise made to the unemployed. He alleged that there is no local government in Telangana and that governance is being carried out from Delhi.
He said that the Congress brand of democracy is Delhi for Delhi by Delhi. KTR suggested that Rahul Gandhi should not be confined to his speeches regarding party defections. He said that the secret understanding between the BJP and the Congress was shameful. KTR said that imposing Section 144 for a month in a city like Hyderabad is not right at all.
