Miryalaguda/ Nalgonda: Constantly cheered by the crowd at every potshot he took against the BJP and Congress, Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao said the country would be ruled by regional parties after the elections.

KCR said that the BJP had contested in 119 seats in Assembly and won only one seat with much difficulty. "Their candidates have lost deposits in 103 seats and today they are talking as if we are going to lose.

Telangana BJP president Laxman says TRS will face consequences after elections. The power at the Centre would come into the hands of regional parties. Laxman, we will target you and you will face consequences.

Your era is over now... mind your words," said KCR. He targeted the BJP leaders again stating that they were not real Hindus.

KCR also targeted the Congress leaders in Nalgonda. The Congress leaders, including TPCC chief N Uttam Kumar Reddy and Komatireddy Venkata Reddy said that they would take 'sanyas' if they lose elections.

They lost the Assembly elections, but now they are contesting Lok Sabha elections. "One leader said he will take sanyas and another leader says he will not remove his beard till Congress comes to power.

What is the use for the people if you don't remove your beard? People want water, power and development not your beard," said KCR.

KCR predicted that after the elections, Uttam would be removed from the post of TPCC. He also took exception to the allegations of selling tickets to TRS candidates. Rao said, the TRS does not know these activities and this was the culture of Congress. V Narsimha Reddy is not new candidate, he is follower of TRS and he was helpful in Telangana agitation.

He asked the Congress leaders to withdraw their comments.

KCR said that people should win in the elections and not parties or individuals. "I am promising to bring qualitative change. I will strive for it and if need be will launch national party. One 'Sannasi' says why KCR will launch party after elections... sannasi, your target is elections mine is not.

I want my country to get developed," said KCR. He said that if the TRS gets 16 MPs, the party will fight till its last breath and if the Congress and BJP leaders win, they will follow the instructions of their masters. The chief minister promised to set right the administration after the elections.

He asked the people not to give bribe and postpone their land-related works for another fortnight. Regarding the Damarcharla power project, he said that this would provide employment to 18,000 persons. KCR said that party leader Sukhender Reddy himself did not want ticket and added that he will become MLC and he will serve the state and country.

Coming down heavily on Modi, KCR said it was appalling that there was no Ministry for Backward Classes at the Centre, when this section of society accounts for 50 per cent of the country's population.

"I have been consistently pursuing this matter both during the UPA rule and now NDA. I took up the issue with Modi too, pointing out that he himself was a BC and he should set up a separate Ministry, but it fell on deaf years," he said.

He came down heavily on the Prime Minister's attempts to paint a different picture of the TRS government with claims that people of the state were deprived of several Central schemes particularly Ayushman Bharat.

"The Aarogya Sree programme that we have is far superior to the Central scheme, which does not cover all sections, but is also miserly in handing out medical assistance," he said, adding: "lf they have the guts, let them come and prove that the Central scheme is better than Aarogya Sree."

"Modi is only peddling a pack of blatant lies. The BJP government has nothing to show for its 5-year rule of the country. Everything is golmaal, and he has nothing concrete to show the people of the country, he added.
