Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Vikramarka came down heavily on KCR, questioning why the leader of the opposition, did not attend the Assembly even for a single day in the last two years. Why is KCR so afraid of the Assembly, he asked. A person who does not come to the Assembly, does he even deserve the post of leader of the opposition, he questioned. The Deputy Chief Minister was addressing a public meeting at Patha Pinapaka village in Tallada mandal on Tuesday, after laying the foundation stone for several sub-station works.

He said that after lying low in a farmhouse for two years, when a senior leader suddenly addresses a press conference after a long gap, they expected him to bless the people’s government by saying that welfare programmes were being implemented well. Instead, he chose to speak about “skinning,” which, the Deputy Chief Minister said, was completely inappropriate. He sarcastically asked when KCR had taken up the profession of skinning people.

People have voted for Congress

Bhatti Vikramarka recalled that during the ten years when they were in the opposition, he himself never missed a single day in the Assembly as Leader of the Opposition and consistently raised the people’s issues on the floor of the House. The Congress government is implementing welfare schemes, the people have elected and sent Congress-backed candidates as sarpanches in 85 percent of the seats. It is for this very reason, BRS president K. Chandrashekar Rao is speaking in a derogatory manner by saying “we will skin.”, he said.

He warned that if leaders sitting around with a group of ten people threaten those who are working for the people by saying “we will skin you,” they will not remain silent. “No one here is empty-handed,” he said strongly. The Deputy Chief Minister said that if panchayat elections are held across 94 Assembly constituencies in Telangana, Congress candidates have won with huge majorities in 85 constituencies, and that no political party in recent times has received such massive public support.
