BJP will never come to power in Telangana: VHR

Congress senior leader and Rajya Sabha MP V Hanumantha Rao on Friday claimed that the BJP will never come to power in Telangana State.

Addressing a press conference at Gandhi Bhavan here, VHR alleged the BJP President Amit Shah's dream of bringing his party to power in Telangana would be never realised. He said BJP would never succeed in communalising the atmosphere in Telangana and therefore, it would continue to chase the mirage of power. He claimed that the Congress party has left no space for communal forces in the State.

VHR also accused the BJP of creating hype over religious conversations in the country. He described the campaign 'Ghar Wapasi' as highly vicious for the country. He said that the BJP itself was not in favour of introducing a law against forced religious conversations. However, it has been blaming the opposition parties for the same. He said that the BJP Government has been trying to shield its failures by trying to rake up communal sentiments.

The Congress MP said that the performance of BJP-led NDA Government at the centre has been extremely poor and it is re-launching the old Congress schemes by renaming them. For instance, the "Swachch Bharat" campaign was previous known as "Nirmala Hashtham", he claimed.
