Hyderabad: BRS working president KT Rama Rao (KTR) said that there is a wrong belief that BRS chief K Chandrashekar Rao (KCR) is not available to the people. Speaking to The Hans India on Friday, KTR said KCR is very much present and is guiding the party leaders. KTR added that if KCR attends the Assembly, Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy would be the one to run away.
When asked about CM Revanth Reddy’s call for KCR to attend the Assembly, KTR said there is no need. As a fan of KCR, KTR personally believes that KCR should not come to a place where discussions are full of foul language. He said the 25 BRS MLAs are enough to take on the Congress.
KTR explained that KCR is not interested in being the Leader of Opposition, but aims for the Chief Minister’s post. He pointed out that leaders like NT Rama Rao and J Jayalalithaa also avoided attending the Assembly. KTR assured that KCR is available to the people of his Gajwel constituency and continues to guide the party on important issues.
On the topic of party members leaving, KTR made it clear that the 10 MLAs who left BRS will not be taken back. He said some of them want to return, but bringing them back would hurt loyal party workers. Politics, he said, is not a revolving door. The final decision will be taken by the party, but KTR’s personal opinion is not to allow them back.
When asked about the name change of the party, KTR explained that BRS changed its name to reflect its aim to influence national politics. He said Telangana’s welfare schemes had inspired the country, and the party wanted to be a bigger force. Although they narrowly lost in their first attempt nationally, KTR said the focus is now on winning back home in Telangana.
Talking about rivals, KTR said that Congress is currently their main opponent in the state, not the BJP. He pointed out that the BJP, despite winning some seats in the past, has not been strong in Telangana. He also said there is no chance of an alliance with the BJP.
KTR criticized the Chief Minister for not having the courage to conduct local body elections. He said BRS is ready to contest whenever elections are held.
Regarding the GHMC elections, KTR said Revanth Reddy doesn’t seem to have a clear plan. Whether GHMC is divided into three corporations or not, KTR said BRS is prepared for elections, even if they are held in December 2025.
When asked about BRS’s achievements over the past 16 months, KTR said the party has kept the people’s trust alive. Despite setbacks like losing power, KCR’s injury, Kavitha’s arrest, and 10 MLAs leaving, BRS remains strong and continues to inspire both its members and the public.
Lastly, KTR said BRS would not politicize the recent Pahalgam issue, stating that the wounds are still fresh and it is not the right time to seek political advantage.
