The BRS was formally launched last month by Chandrasekhar Rao with the slogan of "Ab ki baar kisan sarkar".
KCR, who has already promised that if voted to power at the Centre, the BRS would supply free electricity to farmers across the country, is expected to promise more measures at the Khammam meeting to woo the farming community.
The BRS was formally launched by KCR last month to expand beyond Telangana. The party announced its entry into Andhra Pradesh on January 2 with former minister Ravela Kishore Babu, former IAS officer Thota Chandrasekhar and former IRS officer Chintala Partha Sarathi joining the party. KCR appointed Chandrasekhar as the BRS state President for Andhra Pradesh.
After landing at Yadagirigutta, all the leaders drove to the Presidential Suite at the renovated temple. They later visited the temple where priests accorded them a traditional welcome.
