metro india news I hyderabad

BJP National President Nitin Nabin alleged that the Congress government has transformed Telangana into an "ATM" for the party by prioritising commissions and political interests over public welfare. Addressing the BJP Telangana State Executive Committee meeting at Ghatkesar on Tuesday, he accused the Congress government of misleading people with false promises and called upon party workers to intensify their struggle to remove the government through democratic means.

Nabin said the BJP would emerge as the true alternative political force in Telangana by taking the aspirations of the people forward. He accused the Congress, BRS and AIMIM of sharing a common political culture rooted in corruption, family rule and failure to fulfil promises, while asserting that the BJP stands for inclusive development under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of "Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas."

He said the BJP remains committed to protecting Indian culture, heritage and Sanatan traditions and strongly condemned attacks on Hindu temples, including the recent incident at the Ayyappa Swamy temple. He assured that the party would continue to hold those responsible accountable through democratic means. Referring to the Telangana movement, Nabin said the aspirations behind statehood remain unfulfilled and recalled the BJP's contribution to the formation of Telangana through the efforts of leaders such as Sushma Swaraj.

Calling upon party workers to strengthen the organisation from the booth level, Nabin said political change in Telangana can only be achieved by remaining connected with the people. 

He stressed that the BJP's national leadership has taken Telangana as a special mission and expressed confidence that the enthusiasm witnessed during his three day visit reflected the party's growing strength in the state. He said establishing a BJP government in Telangana is both a political objective and a responsibility towards workers who have struggled for the party over the years.

Ramchander Rao calls for United Fight against Congress

BJP Telangana President N. Ramchander Rao said the BJP has emerged as the genuine alternative in the state, accusing both the Congress and BRS of pushing Telangana into debt through corruption, family rule and administrative failures. He alleged that the Congress government has failed to implement its welfare promises, resorted to demolitions under HYDRA, and attempted to shift its governance failures onto the Centre.

Ramchander Rao said the BJP supports Musi river rejuvenation but opposed projects that displace people without addressing pollution first. He highlighted the Centre's contributions to Telangana through projects such as AIIMS, highways and educational institutions, and urged party workers to remain united as "Team BJP" and work among the people to ensure the party's victory in the coming elections.
