Aim to win 100 seats in next assembly elections, Telangana CM KCR tells party leaders

HYDERABAD: Asserting that Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) will retain power again in Telangana in 2023, party chief and chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao asked the party workers to reach 100-seat mark in the assembly elections.
“Coming to power again is not a big task, our task should be winning 100 seats. In 2014, the TRS (BRS) secured 63, which rose to 88 seats in 2018.Now we should target more than 100 seats and work in that direction,” KCR said while addressing the party leaders and workers at the BRS plenary on Thursday.
The party supremo stressed that the MLAs should focus on the public and hold `village contact programme and spend night in the villages in their respective assembly constituencies.
Two leaders would be made in-charge of coordinating party affairs in each assembly constituency. In the assembly segments, where the party does not have MLAs, zilla parishad chairpersons and MPs would be made as in-charge and the entire process should be completed within three to four months, he said.
The BRS organised a party plenary at Telangana Bhavan, which was attended by 279 party leaders including MLAs, MPs, MLCs, district presidents, corporation chairpersons, ZP chairpersons, and other important leaders from all the 33 districts. This meeting was the first plenary after TRS became BRS to go national.
“TRS began its journey with an aim to achieve Telangana state and got the state with political fight with limited losses. We also proved with the parliamentary and democratic way, anything can be achieved. BRS is now progressing with the slogan Abki Bar Kisan Sarkar,” KCR said.
He said that farmers suicides in Maharashtra are highest in the country and it was due to lack of vision.
“Some Maharashtra leaders in their government were commenting, if the Telangana schemes are implemented in their state, the state government would become bankrupt. Why did Telangana not become bankrupt though the schemes are being implemented for several years,” he questioned while dismissing the argument as baseless.
