Congress will face youth, farmers’ ire over unkept promises: KTR
BRS leader K.T. Rama Rao has criticized the Congress government in Telangana for failing to deliver on election promises related to youth employment and farmer welfare. He further alleged mismanagement of the Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Project and neglect of agricultural support schemes.
Why it matters
This reflects the ongoing political friction in Telangana, where opposition parties are leveraging public dissatisfaction to challenge the ruling government's performance.
BRS working president K. T. Rama Rao warned that the Congress government in Telangana would face a massive youth movement, similar to the ongoing protests against the BJP-led Central government in New Delhi, over its alleged failure to fulfil election promises.
Addressing a ‘Rythu Sadassu’ at Luxettipet in Mancherial district on Tuesday, Mr. Rao said the recently held ‘Yuva Sangrama Sadassu’ reflected growing anger among youth over the unfulfilled promises made in the Congress’s Youth Declaration - including two-lakh jobs and unemployment allowance.
He alleged that farmers were also agitated over the government’s failure to implement assurances made in its “Rythu Declaration” ahead of the 2023 Assembly elections. He accused the government of failing to provide ₹2,500 a month to women under the Mahalakshmi scheme.
