Congress key leader Kunduru Jana Reddy reacted in a fierce manner over KTR’s comments last evening. Speaking at a public gathering, KTR termed Jana Reddy and Congress party as, ‘Jana Reddy and 40 Thieves’ in resemblance to Alibaba and the 40 Thieves.

Speaking at a press meet, Jana Reddy took potshots at KTR. ‘KTR is filled with arrogance. KTR doesn’t have the criterion to even speak about Congress. Through his words, what message is he giving to the people of the state? All that he knows is to humiliate other party leaders.

I believe he is under an illusion that, he can lead politics by humiliating leaders and the high command of other parties. This will not do any good for the people of the state. His statements are neither democratic nor a reflection of a good leader and positive governance. They are clearly filled with arrogance and pride of power. His nature is to create groups and attack the leaders of the other parties.

KTR tries to restrict the thought process of the common man, with his aggressive words, and offensive language. This is the strategy that KTR and his party are adapting to come to power and continue in power. The people of the state will teach KTR (and TRS party) a lesson in the 2019 elections.’

If Congress can grab anywhere between 15-20 seats in the upcoming 2019 Telangana Assembly elections, it would be a clear ‘moral’ victory over TRS.
