Lok Sabha Elections | Congress Will Not Get A Chance In These Elections: KT Rama Rao | News18

None. Thank you for making it on a day its been so stormy. Do you see any symbolism of the turbulence outside for the political fortunes of the BRS? Not at all. In fact if anything, while the weather may be damp, I think our spirits are not. We are certainly very, very confident and we are very hopeful that things have turned around in the last five months and its looking very, very good. Hopefully you will see probably BRSS best performance in the Parliament ever on the 4th of June. That sounds very reassuring for a party that garnered over 41% vote share in the 2019 Lok Sabha share. And as far as Congress and the BJP were concerned, they were much behind even in the Assembly election. Yes, you were not leading, but there was a very thin margin between you and the Congress party. Do you see the Lok Sabha 2019 performance getting replicated this time here? In fact, we are hoping to do better because in 2014 we had won about 11 Parliament seats, 11 Lok Sabha seats. In 2019, we had won nine. This time I’m hoping that well cross 11 and probably get around 12 or 13. The reason why I say this is because of two things. 10 years of NDA government, 10 years of abysmal performance, absolute incompetence, absolute zero in terms of delivery to Telangana has resulted in a lot of people basically realizing that BJP as a party has done deadly squad for Telangana has done, you know, very little for Indians at large. Likewise the newly, you know, formed Congress government about five months ago. You know had promised the moon Hatheli me Jannat Dikhadiya budget delivery Ki baatai paanch mahinemai kuchine kya TOI silly aajit Mahul Aisalagra Key. People have realized that they’ve been cheated by both Bada Bhai Modi Saab and Chota Bhai Revanth Reddy Saab Revanth Reddy. Is Tom toming about the Raitu Bandu scheme. I’ve spoken to the girls students from HCU. They are very happy with the fact that they’re getting free bus travel. Let me correct your, let me correct your you know leading statement. Raitu Bandhu is an initiative of BR. Absolutely. But let me complete it. Let me complete. Raventh Reddy had promised what was called Raitu Barosa meaning 50% enhancement over Raitu Bandhu. Unfortunately he did not deliver it. Not not only did he not deliver it, but he failed miserably. Jab hamlog Satta Chorika. We had left about 7000 plus crores in the Kitty for which was meant to be for Raitu Bandhu disbursement. This man takes five months and now finally normally Kawata at the time of sowing of a crop hotel Raithubandu investment dinner. But now this man is finally delivering at the time of harvest and that too that too not the enhanced amount that he promised within 100 days, just what was kept in the Kitty and spread over a period of five months. So the farming community is extremely upset and you will see this in the in the polls, Revanth Reddy is saying that they don’t even consider you as a national player and that its not even a track honored contest. Its a its a direct contest between the Bhartiya Janta Party and Congress, the Congress and the BJP and their sense of entitlement. Unko lagta iku unka babka jagir haidesh but NI desh kisika jagir niyota desh har kisika is desh me do party. NI is desh me multiparty system. Constitution of India allows for multiparty system. It’s a parliamentary democracy in May pants seat the seat Congress partner Hindustan ‘s Congress Jisko log dekh dekh thak chuke jiske ha tomei cheat ho ho ke Pak chuke. Congress is bar moka nahi milega Telangana me bahar Hindustan me bahar alag rajo me or rajo me kyaora ani rajo me kyaora. I don’t know. But all I can tell you is in Telangana the Congress is set to receive a root shock from the people for a BJP that is in fact setting its target on Char Sopa. Where do you see this alliance on? The slogan is all about right char sopar kya hoga petrol or diesel car dam Char sopa that BJP go about doge to char sopar ho jayega Petrol rate or diesel rate? No, but that’s BJP on one hand. How do you contrast that with the Indi alliance on the other hand? Well, I’ll tell you what, this country is not bipolar, its this countries. This is not a contest between India and India. There are thirteen parties, significantly large parties, which are neither in the NDA camp nor in the India camp. I’ll give you 3 names. One is BRS of course which is expecting to win anywhere upwards of 12. Second is YSRCP and Andhra Pradesh. They’re not in either camps. The third is Biju Janta Dal and there’s several others who are like minded. All I’m saying Akankshaji is in India especially electoral pacts and post poll and pre poll understandings. These are very very transitory. So trust me when I say this today what binds India alliance also is there is no mutual respect and that’s why I want to ask mutual trust. So all I’m saying is the lack of support from regional parties. Do you think that is becoming the Achilles heel for India alliance? Not at all, not at all. In fact if anything I think these two national parties socalled national parties are also big sized regional parties. Congress K kitnaya seat bachas Rahul Gandhi swam nahi lad Satya Amethi SA leader Jokhut Apne seats annahar Gaya to Bhagya as a leaders say kya umid rakhna or Dusri taraf NDA just Ki baat sunshine bar bar ke char so Parker mujhe AAP char vaja DJ koi BJP leader char vaja Ki Telangana kya kya kya Ki you know trend ultimately Tona NDA India alliance don’t know bias under confident. Let’s come to what your sister K Kavita had to say at the Rouse Avenue court today. She said they’d let a Prajwal revana escape. And this is for the public to note that leaders like us are arrested not just Prajwal Revana Vijay Mallya and so many others you know who have cheated the country looted the banks have been given safe passage. Its a fact Prime Minister Modi he is known to help his friends. 14 1/2 lakh crores of corporate loan has been waived off whereas 30,00,000 crore rupees of money has been collected from the poor on the petrol and through the petrol and diesel, says In a CNN News 18 exclusive Revanth Reddy has in fact said that the reason behind K Kavitas arrest was to arrest Kejriwal and that corruption had nothing to do with that arrest. But mind you, he says that if corruption was the the reason behind the arrest, then they should have arrested you and your father. Mr. Kesia. See, Revanth Reddy is a joke. I don’t take him seriously. But I’ll tell you one thing. I’ll tell you why he’s a joke. He’s a Congress Chief minister. But he toes the line of Prime Minister Modi swam Rahul Gandhi Jaate Ram Leela maidan or Akhro Shwat Karte Kejriwal Ji kores karna Galatha or Revanth Reddy Ji kaithe Ki with kavitha karas Karna Sahi. Rahul Gandhi Ji kaita chowkidar chor hai. Revanth Reddy chowkidar meri badai. Rahul Ji kete Gujarat model bikar hai. Revanji kete. Gujarat model shandar hai. Rahul Ji kete adani fraud hai. Revanji kete adani friend Rohit vemula act banana chatte. Rahul Gandhi I want you to counter that. Rahul Gandhiji Rohit vemula act banana, chatte unke khutke swam Chief minister Ki government’s election ke Duran baat BJP may jump Karnevala pehla admi Yoga. Pure Hindustan Yaato sattar nahi samal pare Yao khud nahi jante kya huraiya. Rajnik Chief Minister Roni ke nathi. The buck stops with him. If his own department is submitting a report to the court that Rohit Vimala is not a Dalit, where does the buck stop? You tell me. This report was submitted to the court in March 2024, four months after Raventh Reddy becomes the chief minister. Either the man does not know what the hell he’s doing, or he has no control over his own administration. That’s all I’ll do to end with Mr. Rao. I just want to ask you, what would you like to tell your critics who are saying the BRS is bleeding out and that is struggling to stay afloat? Well, talk on June 4th. I wish you the very best. Many thanks to you. Thank you. Thank you for giving us your precious time here at CNN News.
