KCR Warns PM Modi

K Chandrashekhar Rao continued his tirade against PM Modi on Friday, saying if the NDA government fails to support the state's development, PM Modi will be driven from power.

Speaking at public meeting in Yashwantpur in Jangaon district, KCR said if required he was ready to play a role in national politics to break "Delhi Fort." "You don't give us national project, you don't give us medical college...If you don't support us, no problem. We will chase you away from power and bring in a govt that will help us," he said.

He categorically mentioned that the state government will not implement the Electricity Reforms proposed by the NDA government in Telangana.

"If you (people) bless me I am ready to break the Delhi Fort. Be careful Narendra Modi. Nobody is sacred of your threats," he said.

With the rising fuel and fertiliser prices, KCR ridiculed PM Modi's "doubling the farmers' income" slogan.

TRS members were attacked by BJP workers in Jangaon, he said, and he warned the saffron party that if anyone touched them, they would be destroyed.

Mr Rao said his govt is committed to implement "dalit bandhu" scheme under which each beneficiary will be given ₹ 10 lakh to start a business of their choice.

This year, 40,000 dalits would receive funds under the program, and every year 2 to 3 lakh beneficiaries would receive "dalit bandhu."
