BRS taking severe exception towards Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy’s controversial remarks, where he allegedly threatened to “trample” BRS leaders and former ministers K T Rama Rao and T Harish Rao, they filed a complaint at Banjara Hills Police Station.
In their complaint, the BRs leaders deplored that through his inflammatory and provocative comments, the Chief Minister has been inciting violence. They further expressed apprehensions over the safety and security of the BRS leaders in the wake of the Chief Minister’s remarks.
They urged the police to register a case and initiate proceedings in this regard. After filing the complaint, former SC and ST Commission chairman Errolla Srinivas expressed concern that Revanth Reddy was behaving like a criminal gang leader rather than a Chief Minister.
He deplored that the inflammatory language being used by the Chief Minister is disturbing the peace and tranquility in the state. He lamented that the Chief Minister has been making such inflammatory remarks threatening the opposition leaders only realizing his inability to govern the state.
He warned that using such words in public life is very dangerous for the maintenance of law and order. With such behaviour, he accused the Chief Minister of inciting violence, and his threats were putting their leaders’ safety at risk.
The BRS leaders also expressed concern over recent attacks on party members, including incidents involving Harish Rao in Khammam, KT Rama Rao at Musheerabad in Hyderabad, and Padi Kaushik Reddy at Kondapur in Hyderabad.
Errolla Srinivas linked the assaults against BRS leaders to the Chief Minister’s rhetoric, warning that Revanth Reddy would be held responsible for the consequences if he did not change his approach.
The BRS leaders also deplored the biased attitude being exhibited by the police, who were registering cases against them for just sharing a post on social media.
But, they pointed out that the same police were not acting against the inflammatory statements of Revanth Reddy, indirectly encouraging the Congress activists to act aggressively.The BRS has demanded immediate legal action against Revanth Reddy for his incendiary remarks.
