KCR has direct phone line with Modi, alleges Rahul Gandhi

TIL Desk/National/Hyderabad/ Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday alleged that Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao has a direct phone line with Prime Minister Narendra Modi from whom KCR takes orders. Alleging that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) work together, Rahul Gandhi claimed that the TRS chief is in direct contact with Modi.

“The Chief Minister has a direct line with Modi. He picks up the phone here and Modi picks it up there. Modi gives order to the Chief Minister that ‘you have to do this today’,” the Congress leader said. Rahul Gandhi was addressing a public meeting on Necklace Road in the heart of the city on Tuesday as part of the ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’. Stating that BJP and TRS work in unison, the former Congress President advised people not to be under any misunderstanding. He also alleged that KCR does dramas before elections.

The Congress MP recalled that whenever BJP brought bills in the Parliament, the TRS blindly supported them. “The TRS also backed the three black farm laws. Whenever the opposition raises an issue in the Parliament, TRS raises some other issue to divert attention,” he alleged. Rahul Gandhi also took a dig at the TRS government for poor infrastructure in the state, saying that there are more potholes than roads in Telangana.
