Days after Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) working president and state IT minister KT Rama Rao was challenged by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Telangana President Bandi Sanjay Kumar to submit to a drug test, KTR accepted the challenge but with a condition.
Speaking to the media during his visit to Rajanna Sircilla district on Tuesday, KTR said that if he comes out clean in the drug test, then Bandi Sanjay should beat himself with his footwear.
KT Rama Rao said, "What drugs test? will give a blood sample.If I’ll come out clean, will he take beatings with his footwear at Karimnagar Circle? Not only for drugs, but if he wants, he can take whatever he wants, including my blood, and he can poach my skin. If he wants, I will also give him my hair."
KT Rama Rao challenged Sanjay Kumar to reveal what he did for Karimnagar. He questioned whether Sanjay Kumar had taken any action to construct a Road Over Bridge (ROB) at Teegala Guttapalli in Karimnagar district. He added that Sanjay Kumar constantly bragged about being a Hindu, but he questioned whether he had raised any money for the construction of temples in the state.

He accused the BJP-led government at the centre of discriminating against Telangana when allocating funds, and he questioned the prime minister about why funds were not allocated for the construction of the Vemulawada temple, known in India as Dakshin Kashi,while the Uttar Kashi, Varanasi, was developed with thousands of crores.
Meanwhile, on Wednesday, speaking to the media at Karimnagar, BJP leader Bandi Sanjay said that "fear is visible on KTR's face and he is depressed" while speaking to the media on Tuesday.
Sanjay asked what happened to the investigation of the drug case. He demanded that the SIT report be released.
