Amit Shah kick-starts BJP campaign in T’gana with double-engine slogan

After the Election Commission announced the schedule for assembly elections, Home Minister Amit Shah on Tuesday launched the party’s election campaign saying Telangana needs a double-engine government of the BJP. Alleging that Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao was working only to promote his family, he called on the people to bring the BJP to power as it alone can work for the welfare of the people of Telangana. Addressing a public meeting in Adilabad, he alleged that in the last 10 years, KCR was only bothered about how to make his son KTR the chief minister. “His only aim is to make KTR the chief minister. The BJP’s aim is to provide jobs, education, and irrigation facilities in every field,” he said. He alleged that KCR runs a hollow campaign that Telangana is number one in the country. “Telangana is number one in unemployment, in not providing drinking water, farmer suicides, crimes against women and children, and also in major scams and corruption,” he said. Exuding confidence that the BJP will form the government in Telangana on December 3, he said only the BJP can ensure prosperous Telangana and free it from corruption.
