Strongly refuting the claims of Roads and Buildings Minister Komatireddy Venkat Reddy that eight MLAs of the BJP were in touch with the Congress, BJP Legislature Party leader A Maheswar Reddy claims that if Congress touches if any one of their MLA, it can pull down Revanth Reddy government in 48 hours.
Moreover, he made sensational revelations that as many as five ministers of the Revanth Reddy cabinet, including Komatireddy, are in touch with the BJP high-command. He asked him if it was not true that he met union minister Nitin Gadkari and promised to play the role of Shinde in Telangana Congress? Stating that knowing these developments Revanth Reddy is spending sleepless nights, he said that no one in the Congress party believed Komatireddy.
He asserted that “If BJP opens its gates, the entire Congress party will become empty within hours.” Maheshwar Reddy termed the claims of Venkat Reddy on BJP MLAs is baseless and cautioned that if the Congress did not stop spreading lies, his party would be forced to create trouble for the government in Telangana.
“We respect the peoples’ mandate. We do not want to destabilize the Congress government. We want you to complete the five year term. But if you try to lure our MLAs, we will not keep quiet. Congress should not forget that it has only 64 MLAs in the Assembly. A small push will destabilize the government,” he warned.
Stating that not a single BJP MLA was in touch with Congress, he said Venkat Reddy was making false claims. “He has lost his mind. His brother (Komatireddy Rajagopala Reddy) is troubling him for the Minister’s post, hence he is making all kinds of allegations. If you have guts, win the Bhongir seat,” he challenged.
“Is your brother Komatireddy Venkat Reddy in touch with you? Your brother is not in touch with you. He is angry for deceiving his wife by not giving MP ticket. In fact, Komatireddy Venkat Reddy prevented her from getting the ticket. Look at your panchayat first,” he advised.
Accusing that Congress party in Telangana is collecting money for its national leadership, the BJP leader claimed that they have the collection data. Maheswara Reddy accused that new R tax is being collected in Telangana state. R stands for Revanth, Rahul, Rajiv. He alleged that till now Rs.1500 crores have been sent to the high command and Rs 500 crore more need to be sent.
