HYDERABAD: Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) Parliamentary Party Leader K Keshava Rao on Monday said that Congress party’s Rahul Gandhi had no qualities to lead the anti-BJP opposition in the country.

He was reacting to Rahul Gandhi’s jibes at the BRS at Sunday’s Khammam public meeting. The Congress national leader called the BRS a ‘B team of the BJP’ and asked the opposition parties not to invite it for anti-BJP meetings.

Addressing a joint press conference at Telangana Bhavan in Hyderabad, Kesava Rao took serious note of Rahul Gandhi’s comments. He said that the BRS was always at the forefront of the anti-BJP movement in the country. He wondered why Rahul Gandhi never thought of leaving the BRS out during the earlier meetings convened to bring opposition unity.

“On the other hand, the BRS believes that he is unfit to lead any opposition coalition that works to bring down the BJP,” he pointed out. The senior BRS leader sought to remind the former AICC chief that it was the BRS that opposed the controversial farm bill 2020 in the Parliament and that its MPs staged a walkout.

“It was because of our leadership that the BJP government withdrew the draconian bills,” he said wondering how a national leader could mislead the country by lying in a public meeting.

Refuting allegations that the BRS was the BJP’s B team, MP and leader of BRS Parliamentary Party in Lok Sabha Nama Nageswara Rao said that Rahul Gandhi was the real relative of the BJP as he was the one who hugged Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the Parliament despite being cautioned by the Speaker of the House.

Another MP Kotha Prabhakar Reddy said that it was not the Congress party that won the Karnataka elections but the people of the State who were vexed with BJP’s misrule.

Another MP BB Patil felt that Rahul was frustrated and daydreaming about a repetition of Karnataka election results. Manne Srinivasa Reddy, MP, exuded confidence that BRS, under the leadership of K Chandrashekar Rao (KCR), would win the ensuing elections in the State with a thumping majority.
