KTR mocks Congress over its six guarantees

Hyderabad, Sep 19 (IANS) Mocking Congress party’s six guarantees for Telangana, Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) working president K. T. Rama Rao (KTR) on Tuesday claimed that if Congress is voted to power change of a chief minister every year, political instability and various problems will be guaranteed.

The state minister also stated that the cost of the Congress guarantees is more than the total budget of Telangana.

The BRS leader said there will also be a guarantee that schemes like Rythu Bandhu and Dalit Bandhu will be scrapped.

KTR appealed to people not to believe false promises of the Congress party. Alleging that Congress is trying to distribute money among voters, the BRS leaders since Congress leaders earned huge money through scams, people should take it but cast their votes only to BRS.
