KTR Blames CM Revanth Reddy for Devara Cancellation, Sparking Political Controversy
In a surprising turn of events, K.T. Rama Rao (KTR), the Telangana Minister for Municipal Administration and Urban Development, has taken aim at Chief Minister Revanth Reddy by linking the recent cancellation of the much-anticipated film event for Jr. NTR’s Devara to alleged governance failures. This latest exchange underscores the ongoing rivalry between the two political figures.
During a media interaction, KTR criticized the current state administration, asserting that the law and order situation has deteriorated since Revanth assumed office. “When the BRS was in power, we successfully managed every event, festival, and public gathering without any issues. However, under Revanth’s leadership, the state struggles to hold even the simplest events. The cancellation of the Devara event is a prime example of this incompetence,” KTR stated.
KTR’s comments have incited a backlash from Congress supporters, who contend that Revanth has maintained a commendable record in managing law and order since taking office. “In the last nine months of the Congress regime, there hasn’t been a single incident of note,” said a Congress party member. They highlighted the smooth execution of major events, including the Khairatabad Nimarjan, which Revanth oversaw personally.
Critics of KTR’s remarks argue that blaming the Chief Minister for the cancellation of a film event is unwarranted. “The CM has critical responsibilities that extend beyond entertainment events. It is the organizers’ duty to secure police protection and adhere to home department guidelines,” commented a Congress-affiliated Twitter user. “To see an educated leader like KTR engage in such trivial blame games is disappointing.”
This clash between KTR and Revanth Reddy reflects the heightened tensions in Telangana’s political landscape, where both parties continue to vie for public support and credibility. As the rivalry intensifies, the implications for governance and public sentiment remain to be seen.
