HYDERABAD: Citing several instances where the TRS supported the BJP at the national level in its ‘anti-minority’ moves, newly appointed TPCC chief A Revanth Reddy alleged that both parties were faking their rivalry to cheat and mislead the people of Telangana. Addressing a meeting with minority leaders from the Congress at former minister Mohammed Ali Shabbir’s residence in Jubilee Hills on Saturday, Revanth recalled how Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao supported the BJP in most of the bills passed in the Parliament that the Muslim community had resisted.
He said that TRS MPs supported the Triple Talaq Bill and did not oppose the Citizenship Amendment Act or the National Register of Citizenship. “Despite repeated demands by the Congress, the TRS government did not pass a resolution in the Assembly opposing CAA and NRC. Rahul Gandhi has rightly described TRS as the B-Team of the BJP,” he said.
