Telangana Rakshana Sena (TRS) president Kalvakuntla Kavitha accused the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) leadership of amassing ₹1,400 crore through alleged quid pro quo deals with contractors from the Andhra region and asserted that she would never return to the party. Speaking to reporters during her tour of Bhadradri Kothagudem district on Thursday, she warned the BRS cadre of insulting her on social media and said the BRS leadership should focus on people’s issues rather than humiliating her with obscene comments.
Ms Kavitha claimed that the BRS indulged in corruption and, through “corrupt quid pro quo arrangements” with Andhra contractors, has amassed huge wealth. The ₹1,400 crore in the BRS bank accounts was related to corrupt money, and that should be distributed to the Telangana martyrs’ families, she argued. Taking a direct reference to her cousin T Harish Rao and also her brother K. T. Rama Rao, she said both were involved in the quid pro quo deals and named some companies that were close to the previous government, accusing the BRS leaders of promoting them for corrupt deals.
She claimed that the BRS created the opportunities for corruption, and the Congress was simply following the same route. She said Chief Minister Revanth Reddy should focus on governance rather than focussing on political vendetta. Ms Kavitha said the entire land allotment during the BRS and Congress regimes would be reviewed when her party comes to power. All the contracts to the Andhra-based contractors would be reviewed, she said, expressing confidence that people would see through both the parties.
Alleging that milk supplied to some top private educational institutions was from a group owned by a BRS leader, she said the State-run Vijaya Dairy should be made to supply milk to all institutions with more than 500 students.
