Amit Shah lashed out KCR’s BRS pointing out their corruption said “The people of Telangana clearly believe that KCR’s party BRS has done nothing except running scams worth thousands of crores in the state.”

Shah also added, “The credibility of any government is determined by whether the promises it made were fulfilled or not. And KCR’s government did not fulfil the promises made to the people of Telangana and only indulged in scams.”

Commenting over dynasty politics, Shah attacked Congress and Owaisi’s party “Congress, BRS  and Owaisi’s party are all dynastic parties and they come before the public with different slogans before the elections, but become united after the elections. Vote cast for Owaisi or Congress will ultimately go to KCR’s account,” said Shah.

Amit Shah further promised to abolish reservation for Muslims in the state. He said, “Once voted to power, we’ll abolish the system of religion based reservation in Telangana. We’ll do away with 4% reservation for Muslims and instead will ensure this to the Backward Classes, Schedule Castes and Schedule Tribes.”

“We will fix the system as the people of Telangana have got tired of the appeasement policy of KCR!,” added Shah.

“I want to tell the people of Telangana that they gave a chance to their Congress, but they joined BRS, they gave a chance to BRS but the BRS did not do any work except corruption and appeasement. This time, form the BJP government under the leadership of Modi ji. We will work to fulfil the dreams of the youth who have sacrificed for the creation of Telangana,” said Amit Shah, slamming Congress and BRS.

The 2023 Telangana Legislative Assembly election is scheduled to be held on 30 November 2023 to elect all 119 members of the state’s Legislative Assembly, followed by counting on December 3.
