Congress MP Accuses BJP's Bandi Sanjay of Hindutva Politics in Telangana
Congress MP Chamala Kiran Kumar Reddy launched a sharp critique against Union minister Bandi Sanjay on Tuesday, urging him to cease what he described as Hindutva politics aimed at inciting religious hatred. Instead, Reddy demanded that Sanjay provide clear information to the people of Telangana regarding the Central funds he intends to secure for the state's development.
Poor BJP Performance in Local Polls Cited
Reddy pointed to the recent municipal elections as evidence of the BJP's failed strategy. "Despite inciting religious hatred, Bandi Sanjay and the BJP failed to get a majority in the Karimnagar municipal corporation," he alleged. In the polls covering seven corporations and 116 municipalities, the BJP managed to win only one municipality and a single corporation. Reddy asserted that this outcome demonstrates how voters have seen through the BJP's tactics, viewing their Hindutva politics as a mere tool for political survival rather than genuine governance.
Allegations of Hypocrisy and Baseless Claims
Further intensifying his attack, Reddy referenced a past incident where Bandi Sanjay was seen carrying Amit Shah's footwear during the Union home minister's visit to Hyderabad. "Therefore, he has no right to speak against chief minister A Revanth Reddy," Reddy stated. He also addressed criticisms from BJP and BRS leaders, including KTR, regarding CM Revanth Reddy's recent trip to Delhi. Reddy clarified that the chief minister's visit was focused on meeting Union ministers to seek approval for projects and secure Central funds for Telangana's development. "They should stop making baseless allegations," he emphasized, calling for a shift from political mudslinging to substantive discussions on state welfare.
Reddy's comments highlight the ongoing political tensions in Telangana, with the Congress MP positioning his party as focused on development while accusing the BJP of divisive politics. The demand for transparency on Central funds underscores the broader issue of resource allocation and state progress, making this a critical topic for Telangana's political landscape.
