Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy questioned whether the BJP could win even a single municipality despite bringing top national leaders for campaigning. Addressing the Praja Palana–Praja Vijayotsava public meeting in Gumlapur, Karimnagar district, he challenged the BJP to deploy its entire leadership, including the Prime Minister, for municipal elections. He asserted that the Congress government has spent ₹17,442 crore on development works across 123 municipalities and seven corporations over the past two years, showcasing its governance strength. Earlier, the Chief Minister also laid foundation stones for several development projects in the area. Revanth Reddy said Congress fulfilled its promise of granting Telangana despite political setbacks at the national level, and respected the people’s mandate even when they later chose the BRS. He accused both the BJP and BRS of spreading negativity against a people-centric government and described their relationship as a “strong, inseparable bond.” Criticizing the Centre, he alleged that several promises—including national project status for irrigation schemes, Metro expansion, and infrastructure support—remain unfulfilled. He also accused the BJP of protecting those responsible for irregularities in the Kaleshwaram project, stating that despite Assembly resolutions, central agencies have not initiated action.

Telangana Jagruti President Kalvakuntla Kavitha questioned why summoning former Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao for questioning in the alleged phone tapping case should be seen as inappropriate. Addressing the media in Hyderabad, she expressed concern that the Special Investigation Team (SIT) probe has remained inconclusive even after two years. Kavitha urged the government to complete the investigation swiftly and ensure accountability, stating that KCR would be able to clarify what occurred during the period under scrutiny. Kavitha said she suspects that her phone and her husband’s phone were tapped and made it clear that she would fully cooperate if the SIT calls her for questioning. She criticized remarks opposing the investigation and emphasized that everyone must respect the law. Separately, she accused the BJP-led central government of ignoring Telangana’s interests, citing delays in fulfilling commitments such as setting up educational institutions, industrial projects, Metro Phase-2, and granting national project status. She alleged that several provisions of the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Act remain pending and described the Centre’s approach as contrary to the spirit of federalism, while also criticizing low budgetary allocations for education and healthcare.
