Background
The ruling Bharat Rashtra Samiti's first public meeting in Telangana would be held on Wednesday in Khammam town in Telangana and leaders like Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan and Samajwadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav are set to take part in it. Other leaders including Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann and CPI General Secretary D Raja would attend the BRS meet.
Chief Ministers, national leaders and farmers' representatives of many states have already reached Hyderabad for the BRS (Bharat Rashtra Samithi) party formation meeting to be held in Khammam. They all reached Pragati Bhavan at 9.45 AM on Wednesday morning as per the invitation of the CM.
On this occasion, CM KCR organised a breakfast dinner for the national leaders. The CM left Pragati Bhavan to visit Yadagiri Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy after picking them up. The mega BRS meeting is scheduled to commence at 2 PM in Khammam.
The meeting assumes political significance as it is the first public meeting after the TRS decided to go national by renaming itself as BRS and also because leaders of different opposition parties — BRS, Aam Admi Party (AAP), Samajwadi Party and the Left — would be seen together.
BRS president and Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao and the visiting leaders would offer prayers at Lord Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy temple at Yadadri near Hyderabad which has been renovated on a grand scale by the KCR government, before proceeding to Khammam.
At Khammam, about 200 km from Hyderabad, they would attend the launch of the second phase of 'Kanti Velugu', the Telangana government's eye screening programme.
Speaking after hoisting the pink colour flag of BRS after the Election Commission approved the name change of TRS as BRS in December, 2022, KCR, exuded confidence that the "pink flag would fly high on the Red Fort one day." Addressing his party leaders then, he gave the slogan of 'Ab ki baar kisan sarkar' (farmers' government this time) and said new economic, environment, water, electricity and women empowerment policies are needed in the country.

A Political Formation That Wasn't Part Of National Freedom Struggle In Power: Pinarayi Vijayan
Today, we have a situation- a political formation that wasn't a part of our national freedom struggle is in power in the country. Followers of those who tendered unconditional apologies to colonisers and promised to serve the imperial crown are at the helm of affairs today. Efforts are on to portray Hindi as the national language while sidelining all our native languages. Imposing Hindi by doing away with our mother tongues will affect the integrity of the nation, said Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan.
