BRS MLC K Kavitha on Monday fired back at Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, labelling him a "habitual offender" who refused to listen to criticism.
This comes after Revanth Reddy launched a scathing attack on former CM K Chandrasekhar Rao (KCR), calling him a "liquor addict." Kavitha defended KCR, highlighting his significant role in the formation of Telangana and his fight for the state. She emphasized that the people of Telangana have made up their minds to teach Revanth Reddy a lesson for his inflammatory language. "Telangana CM Revanth Reddy is a habitual offender, no matter how many times you correct him, he will do the same things. The people of Telangana have said many times that he should not use language like this but he does not listen...Former Telangana CM KCR fought for the state of Telangana and he played a very big role in the formation of the state of Telangana...The public of Telangana have made up their minds to teach him a lesson," said Kavitha. The ongoing spat is the latest in a series of heated exchanges between Revanth Reddy and the BRS leadership. Revanth Reddy has been critical of KCR's leadership, accusing him of making Telangana bankrupt during his 10-year rule. The BRS, on the other hand, has been targeting Revanth Reddy's governance and policies. On Sunday, Revanth Reddy took a dig at the BRS leader Harish Rao's remarks calling former Chief Minister KCR "father of Telangana". "For whom is KCR the father of the nation? Will this father of Telangana wake up without the smell of liquor?" Revanth Reddy said while speaking at a public meeting at Shivunipalle in the Station Ghanpur Assembly Constituency. "Konda Laxman Bapuji, Jayashankar, etc. are the Fathers of Telangana. A person who looted lakhs of crores is a liquor addict and sucked the blood of Telangana people cannot be the father of Telangana," he added. Earlier, Harish Rao had stated that KCR is the father of Telangana while Revanth Reddy is the father of abuses. The Chief Minister accused KCR of having made Telangana bankrupt through his 10-year rule. "The new Telangana state was handed over to KCR as a surplus State. "After 10 years, KCR made Telangana bankrupt," he said. "People gave a big mandate to Congress in 2023 and showed their power to BRS. Can KCR not come to the people unless he has power? KCR is not coming out and letting his son and daughter-in-law roam the roads. Why is he being given opposition status when he is not coming out? Why are the salary and allowances paid to KCR?" he added. (ANI)
