Terming Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) supremo K Chandrashekhar Rao’s effort to unite opposition parties as a ‘futile exercise’, Union Tourism Minister G Kishan Reddy said that people of the country have great faith in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, hence, parties like BRS do not matter to BJP.
Kishan Reddy said at a press conference in New Delhi on Wednesday that inviting a few leaders and holding a public meeting would not change people’s perception of the BJP. “Let them hold such meetings across the nation. It will have no effect on the BJP. We are not afraid of BRS,” he asserted.
According to Kishan Reddy, the Khammam meeting was organised solely to criticise Prime Minister Modi. “Leaders present at the meeting were more interested in criticising the PM than promoting BRS. The more you criticise Modi, the more people of Telangana will come closer to BJP. People will soon send BRS out of power,” he said.
Taking issue with the Chief Minister’s remark during the public meeting that the country has lost direction under the BJP regime, Kishan Reddy stated that India was developing at a faster pace under Modi’s leadership, as opposed to Chandrashekhar Rao, who has completely ruined the State’s economy.
