“Gandhi Family Always Betrayed Telangana”: BRS Leader K Kavitha
The Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) leader K Kavitha on Sunday criticised the Gandhi family as they had betrayed the people of Telangana. She was in the midst of a poll campaign and reiterated her statement to the news agency ANI adding that the Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is only a guest to Telangana.
K Kavitha is a Member of the Legislative Council (MLC) from BRS, the ruling political party of the state. She is also the daughter of incumbent Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao, and represents Nizamabad since 2020. She also served as a Member of Parliament from 2014 to 2019.
“Rahul Gandhi is our guest. He comes here, eats biryani, eats paan”, said K Kavitha. She added that the Gandhi family had always betrayed the people of Telangana and their motive was only to accuse K Chandrashekar Rao. “They just want to accuse KCR. People of Telangana are not liking it”. She added that whatever Rahul Gandhi was saying were false statements.
As declared by the Election Commission of India (ECI), the Telangana Legislative Assembly election was scheduled to be held on November 30, 2023. The results will be declared on December 3 and the state will elect representatives to all the 119 members of the legislative assembly. The state is witnessing a crucial test amidst a triangular competition between BRS, Congress, and BJP. The state government is currently ruled by the Bharatiya Rashtra Samiti (BRS) with K Chandrashekar Rao on the Chief Ministerial position. The major opposition is the Indian National Congress (INC) and the BJP is still working hard even though they had a comparatively low profile in the state now.

This is not the first time K Kavitha hit out at the Congress leader and MP Rahul Gandhi. In October also she said that the relationship Gandhi family had with the state is of betrayal. She was addressing the party workers’ meeting in Nizamabad then. K Kavitha then stated that, Rahul Gandhi claimed that he maintains a relationship with Telangana since his grandmother’s time and father’s time. “In the last 10 years, Rahul Gandhi never spoke in support of Telangana. He never stood with us. Yes, you surely have a relationship with Telangana to continuously betray Telangana”, she said.
