Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra reached the streets of Hyderabad on Tuesday afternoon. During a rally here, Rahul Gandhi took a swipe at the TRS government in the state, alleging that Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao had “direct access to Modi, but acted as rivals outside”.
Launching an attack against the TRS, Rahul Gandhi claimed that the government led by KCR’s party was working against the interests of the people of Telangana.
“TRS and BJP are one and the same and they work the same. People should not fall in their trap,” said Rahul Gandhi, adding, “Whatever bill is introduced in Parliament, the TRS gives full support to the BJP.”
He further alleged, “KCR has direct access to Modi and gets orders from him on how to act in Telangana. But they act as rivals
outside.”
The Congress leader attacked the KCR-led government in Telangana over the issues of infrastructure development.
“I thought Delhi is the most polluted city, but I got to know it's Hyderabad as the TRS government is keeping the standards of infrastructure so low. The infrastructure development that is supposed to happen here is not happening,” Rahul Gandhi said in Hyderabad.
He added, “In my 7-day yatra in Telangana, I met farmers, youth, and all the other people of the state. Congress leaders and I listened to the voice of these people all day. The Telangana farmers say that they are working so hard every day and are still not able to get profit because they are not getting any support from the government.”
Rahul Gandhi said the Bharat Jodo Yatra is a “fighting tool for all of us to fight for democracy”.
