Telangana: Congress will highlight BJP, TRS failures in Munugode by-poll, says TPCC chief Revanth Reddy | Hyderabad News

HYDERABAD: The Congress has demanded that the BJP should seek votes only after announcing a Rs 5,000 crore package or coming out with its action plan for the sector-wise development of the by-poll bound Munugode assembly constituency.
Telangana Congress president A Revanth Reddy on Sunday said even the ruling TRS did not have moral right to seek votes as it failed to fulfil its promises of delivering 2-BHK houses, 3 acres land to Dalits, Rs 1 lakh crop loan waiver and a job to every family.
Both the ruling parties, BJP and TRS are respectively trying to derive political mileage in the by-poll bound Munugode segment by levelling allegations against each other, and diverting the attention of the people from the failures of the BJP government at the centre and TRS government in Telangana, he said.
The TPCC chief called upon the party cadres to kick up a discussion among the voters in Munugode constituency about the BJP government’s policies resulting in the price rise and making the lives of poor and middle classes difficult.
“The price of LPG gas refill Rs 400-odd during Congress government before 2014 and today it is over Rs 1,000 per refill. As if the increasing prices of petrol and diesel having a cascading effect on the rates of essential commodities was not enough, the Modi-government has imposed GST on food items too. The poor are looking up the Congress to question the BJP and TRS governments on their behalf. The Congress cadres will make all these as major issues in the by-poll to Munugode,” Revanth said.
He said the BJP government has failed to fulfil its promises of doubling the income of the farmers and depositing Rs 15 lakh each into the bank accounts of the poor by bringing back black money.
“The Modi-government has failed to deliver its promise of giving 2 crore jobs every year. It needs to give 16 crore jobs going by its eight years of governance so far. I had raised a question in parliament and got a written reply that only 7 lakh jobs have been provided in the central government sector against 22 crore applications for jobs,” Revanth said.
The Congress cadres should coordinate with their counterparts from the Left parties and Telangana Jana Samithi and inform the voters that they should get misled by what TRS and BJP leaders promise to them in their public meetings on August 20 and August 21 respectively. CM KCR will be addressing a public meeting on August 20 and union home minister Amit Shah on August 21 in Munugode assembly constituency.
