Not elections but war between two families: Telangana CM Revanth Reddy
Reddy came out all guns blazing at the BJP-led Centre saying that the upcoming Lok Sabha elections will pit two families against each other--the NDA and central agencies at its disposal and the Congress family, many of whose members sacrificed their lives for the country.
Addressing people at the release of the Congress's 'Nyay Patra' or manifesto in the state during the 'Jana Jatara Sabha', Reddy said on Saturday, «Congress is a family. I want to tell Rahul Gandhi that the upcoming elections are not just electoral contests but a war that pits two families against each other. This is an all-out war between the Congress family and the one headed by PM Modi.»
«Modi's family features EVMs, ED, CBI and the Income Tax Department. Our family has martyrs--Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi, and a leader who sacrificed the PM's chair, Sonia Gandhi. This is a family whose members, including Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi, have selflessly dedicated their lives to the country,» the Congress leader added.
He said the Congress workers were prepared to sacrifice their lives in the fight against PM Modi's family, if needed.
«Lakhs of Congress workers are our family. We will see which of these two families prevails in these elections. We are going to war against PM Modi's family. We will fight against the EVM, ED, and the CBI. We will sacrifice our lives in this fight, if need be,» CM Reddy said.
Earlier, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, while addressing 'Jana Jatara Sabha', listed the five guarantees (Nyay) in the party's manifesto.
