BJP slams Opposition’s ‘personal attacks’, eyes Khairatabad bypoll
BJP Telangana president N. Ramchander Rao criticized opposition parties for focusing on personal attacks against Prime Minister Modi rather than policy issues. Additionally, the BJP expressed confidence in winning the upcoming Khairatabad bypoll while accusing the Congress and BRS of politicizing the Nizam's legacy.
Why it matters
This reflects the intensifying political polarization in Telangana as parties prepare for by-elections and debate historical narratives to influence voter sentiment.
BJP Telangana president N. Ramchander Rao criticised Opposition parties for “negative and divisive” politics, alleging that they were failing to play a constructive role at a time when the country was progressing towards becoming a developed nation.
Addressing the media after visiting the Balapur Ganesh pandal on Sunday, Mr. Ramchander Rao accused Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and other Opposition leaders of resorting to personal attacks on Prime Minister Narendra Modi instead of engaging in policy-based criticism.
The Congress lacked the confidence to challenge the BJP on governance and development issues and had therefore chosen to focus on personal criticism, he said.
Meanwhile, Medak MP M. Raghunandan Rao asserted that the BJP would win the Khairatabad bypoll following the disqualification of its sitting legislator Danam Nagender by the High Court for switching parties.
