Telangana minister KT Rama Rao on Thursday raked up the Telugu film RRR's loss to Gujarati film Chhello Show in the competition for India's official submission to the Oscars and claimed that no Telangana BJP leader has the guts to demand Telangana's rights.
Taking to Twitter, KTR said, "Not a single BJP joker from Telangana has the guts to demand what is rightfully ours ever ready to carry chappals of their Gujarati bosses but can’t summon the courage to demand Telangana’s rights. Gujarat is the epicentre of Modiverse".
KTR reacted over the loss of SS Rajamouli's RRR came after Prof K Nageshwar, a former MLC and Osmania University teacher, tweet that reads "Our RRR lost to Gujarati film Chhello Show in the race for oscar. Our Kazipet denied coach factory. Gujarat gets a locomotive factory. Our Hyderabad lost WHO centre to Jamnagar in Gujarat. Our Hyderabad International arbitration tribunal gets a competitor in GIFT city in Gujarat,".
Meanwhile, KTR denied allegations by BJP leader Laxman that the TRS government is taking credit for central-funded welfare schemes in villages. KTR said, "Telangana contributing to the development of the country. Know the calculations. If you do self-deception, it's up to you, but don't fool people".
