TRS working president K T Rama Rao calls Telangana BJP MPs ‘accidental, incidental’

HYDERABAD: On a day when the BJP released a charge sheet against seven years of TRS rule in Telangana, TRS working president K T Rama Rao called the four BJP MPs who got elected from the state in 2019 as ‘accidental and incidental MPs’.
Speaking to TOI exclusively ahead of TRS’ celebrations of completing 20 years, KTR refused to accept that his party’s biggest challenge comes from the BJP.

“For those who are saying BJP is growing in Telangana, remember that they did not secure their deposit in Nagarjuna Sagar byelection and lost their sitting MLC from Hyderabad,” he said. “In the 2018 polls, of the 119 seats contested, they lost deposits in 105.”
“There is a saying ‘Addimar Guddi Debba’ which means it happens just accidentally. In BJP’s case, it is no different and helped them get four seats in Lok Sabha. In Dubbak too the BJP won with a 1,000-vote majority because of confusion over symbols,” he added.
He opined people in public life should maintain dignity. “But some leaders use objectionable language against our CM. They should know that every action has equal and opposite reaction,” he said.
