'Telangana Became Private Limited': Rajnath Singh Hits Out At KCR Over 'Family Interference' In Govt
Rajnath Singh slammed KCR, saying, "In the last ten years, Telangana's progress appears private, with KCR's family interference. You were chosen as CM, not your family".
Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh addressed the public meetings at Jammikunta in the Huzurabad assembly segment, and at Badangpet in the Maheswaram constituency on Monday, as part of the BJP's campaign for the upcoming legislative assembly polls in Telangana.
Rajnath Singh expressed his concerns about the state's development and governance in his address to the public meeting in Huzurabad. He stated, "In the last 10 years, the development in Telangana is not just limited, but private limited. Here, the interference of KCR's family is seen... The people chose you as a CM, not your family. I don't want to make allegations about any family member... I respect them all. But you have to run the government. The whole family is running the government. The people of Telangana are being neglected. There is an abuse of power under KCR's rule, and corruption is increasing rapidly. KCR says that he has never done any corruption, but the talk of corruption done by his family is not limited to Hyderabad or Telangana; it has reached Delhi."

Rajnath Singh also emphasised the significance of political leaders' words matching their actions. He noted, "A leader should be such that he does what he speaks. There should be no difference in his words and deeds. The difference between the words and deeds of the politicians has created a crisis of credibility in the politics of India. And if any party in India has accepted this crisis of credibility, then it is the BJP under PM Modi's leadership. We fulfill everything we say," as reported by news agency ANI.

Rajnath also questioned KCR about his promise to give Dalits three acres of land and a Rs 10 lakh grant per family, and how many beneficiaries have received the benefit.
He accused Telangana's people of being ignored. "Under KCR's regime, there is abuse of power and corruption is growing rapidly," Singh said.
He claimed that women are getting more opportunities under the Modi regime, claiming that the Women's Reservation Bill, which was recently passed in Parliament, could go into effect in 2029 or even 2026.
Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, along with other union ministers, including Piyush Goyal, Parshottam Rupala, and Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti, is set to continue addressing BJP campaign rallies in Telangana throughout the week in preparation for the legislative assembly polls scheduled for November 30. Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti is expected to meet with fishermen at Musheerabad and Amberpet in Hyderabad, according to BJP sources cited by news agency PTI.
According to the report, Rupala will speak at a rally in Kalwakurthy on Monday, while Goyal will attend an event in Jubilee Hills on October 17 evening.
