Hyderabad: Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy, his cabinet colleagues and leaders of the ruling Congress on Wednesday participated in a ‘Chalo Raj Bhavan’ protest here over the Adani issue and also against “Prime Minister Narendra Modi not visiting violence-hit Manipur”.
The protest was organised by the state Congress as per a call given by the AICC.
Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president B Mahesh Kumar Goud was among the party leaders and workers who also took part in the protest.
This comes after AICC launched a nationwide campaign to expose alleged corruption of Adani and inaction of the BJP government in the Center and to highlight the government’s failure to restore order in Manipur and PM Modi’s failure to visit the North-eastern state.
Speaking at the protest rally, Revanth Reddy said, “Adani and Prime Minister’s affiliation has damaged the image of the country and led to a conspiracy to subvert the country’s economy abroad. There should be a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) to probe this corruption. The PM does not care about this corruption and is behaving carelessly. Rahul Gandhi has called for a nationwide siege of Raj Bhavan.
Some people may say what is the point of Congress doing dharna if it is in the government. If the JPC is not formed, we will stage a dharna in front of Rashtrapati Bhavan.”
Congress party senior leaders Bhatti Vikramarka, Mahesh Kumar Goud, Deepa Das Munshi, MLAs and MLCs also participated in the rally.
