Revanth clarifies on ‘Nene raja’ comment

Responding to a barrage of criticism on his statement-"Nene Raja Nene Mantri" (I am the King, I am the Minister) comment that he made recently during a visit to Delhi, the Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy on Sunday said that his comment was distorted by the opposition. On the contrary, he claimed that he operates as ‘servant to the people’ rather than a ruler. He explained that as the Chief Minister and Municipal Minister, he takes full responsibility for the state's development and upcoming election outcomes.  

Addressing the Sant Sevalal Maharaj birth anniversary celebrations in Hyderabad, the Chief Minister said he would take responsibility for the outcome of the municipal elections.“Opposition leaders are not digesting the Congress victory and are not ready to accept the ground reality in the state politics. I never behaved like a ruler, but instead as a servant to the people. I will be active for the next 20 years and serve people,” the CM said.
