Revanth Reddy should make way for Ponnam Prabhakar or Mahesh Kumar Goud as CM: BJP president

Telangana BJP president N. Ramchander Rao suggested that Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy should quit and hand over the post to his Cabinet colleague Ponnam Prabhakar or PCC President Mahesh Kumar Goud, both of them belonging to the Backward Classes (BCs) if he was really sincere about the BC welfare. In an informal interaction with the media at the State party office on Friday, Mr. Rao 'thanked' Mr. Reddy for making the suggestion of making former Governor Bandaru Dattatreya as the next Vice President and said the party will take a call on that and offered his own piece of advice to the CM. The BJP leader has accused Mr. Reddy of insulting the entire BC community with his comments that Prime Minister Modi belonged to a 'converted BC caste' and wanted to know what religion or caste his (CM) leader Rahul Gandhi belonged to. The Chief Minister should be given a 'Goebbels Prize' for all kinds of propaganda he was indulging in, he said and demanded the Congress first fulfil the promise of 42% quota for the BC in the local body polls by amending Section 285 of the Panchayat Raj Act to make it 'legally strong'. Mr. Rao said the Telangana government caste census cannot be a role model for the country when it had reduced the BCs numbers. It was unfair and outrageous to add 'all the Muslims' in the 10% quota out of the 42% BC quota when only a few castes like 'dudekulas', 'hajis' and 'pakirs' were included in the BC-B category earlier. The Congress government has made only two persons from among BC as Cabinet Ministers whereas the majority of Ministers in the Modi Cabinet belonged to BCs, he said. The BJP chief also dismissed about the internal fights in the party as a 'family' issue and said the Central leadership is seized of the issue. He would soon constitute a new State committee with 20 persons and 33% posts would be given to women. There is no pressure on him about the new party posts and wanted the aspirants to go to the people and fight on public issues.

4 attempts made to kill my son Tejashwi: Rabri

1 2 Patna: Former Bihar CM Rabri Devi made a sensational revelation on Friday, alleging that there were four attempts made in the past to "assassinate" her son, Tejashwi Prasad Yadav , and blamed these attempts on the "BJP-JD(U) people". Tejashwi, leader of the opposition in the state assembly, is considered the opposition INDIA bloc's CM face, although a formal announcement has not been made so far. "Tejashwi Yadav ko toh char baar marne ke koshish hua tha rasta mein…Yahan bhi marne ke koshis ho raha hai (There have been four attempts in the past to kill him on the way. Conspiracies are still being hatched to eliminate him in Patna)," Rabri told reporters in the portico of the Bihar legislative council. She added that Tejashwi faces serious threats to his life and they are very much aware of who is behind the conspiracies. "But none can silence the voice of the people," she said. Rabri levelled these allegations against her political rivals a day after the Bihar legislative assembly plunged into pandemonium during which opposition and ruling party members ran menacingly towards each other and almost came to blows, but this was averted due to timely intervention by the security forces. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like We Have No Words For Dog The Bounty Hunter's Transformation Cash Roadster Some RJD members alleged that during this scuffle-like situation, a BJP member uprooted the microphone from the table and ran menacingly towards Tejashwi with the intention to assault him, a charge denied by the NDA leaders. RJD sources said Rabri was compelled to raise the security issue of her son in light of some recent incidents where Tejashwi's life appeared to be "in danger". On July 10, a speeding car allegedly tried to enter his cavalcade on J P Ganga Path in Patna, prompting the police to arrest the driver. On June 29, Tejashwi narrowly escaped injury as a drone crashed into the podium while he was addressing the "Waqf Bachao, Samvidhan Bachao Sammelan" at Gandhi Maidan in Patna. He narrowly escaped again on June 7, when a speeding truck hit two vehicles of his convoy, injuring three security personnel in Vaishali district. Tejashwi himself said a firing incident took place outside his official residence at 1, Polo Road, which is considered a VIP area, last month.
