BRS, Telangana Cong slam Budget 2024-25 for being one-sided
Currently, the BJP has eight MPs from the state yet the finance minister did not even mention Telangana in her Budget speech.

The BRS reminded the MPs that this Budget will determine the foundation for the next five years of the Modi government.
Political parties that once held power in a state or at the national level sometimes fade away. Once a powerful force, the Bharatiya Rashtra Samithi (BRS) in Telangana is now weakening in politics like many others. BRS MLA A. Gandhi's defection to Congress last week reflects its leader's tactics.
He wondered why the Congress was celebrating even when a large number of eligible beneficiaries were worried and uncertain whether their loans will be waived under the state government’s scheme.
The BJP and Congress shared the spoils equally in Telangana winning eight seats each at the cost of the BRS failing to win a single seat in the state and coming third in 14 of the 17 seats including in Greater Hyderabad where they had won most Assembly seats only six months back.
In North Telangana seats, BJP has taken the lead while in South Congress is dominating.
The chief minister used the occasion of the Telangana Formation Day to settle scores with the Opposition BRS and BJP.
Speaking at the protest meeting, Laxman alleged that Rao, more popularly known as KCR, had misused the surveillance system to perpetuate his power during his tenure, buying votes and beating opponents in bypolls.
Slamming the state government's decision, BRS leader KT Rama Rao pointed out that during the Assembly elections, the Congress had promised Rs 500 as a bonus over MSP on any variety of rice but now decided to extend the bonus to only fine variety of paddy.
The Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) is once again regrouping in Telangana to fight one of its toughest electoral battles following the debacle in the Assembly elections last year.
