BRS accuses Congress, BJP of hiding CM’s cancelled US visit details

The Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) has accused both the Congress Government in the State and the BJP Government at the Centre of concealing crucial information regarding the canceled visit of Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy to the United States. In an interview with the media on Tuesday, BRS general secretary R.S. Praveen Kumar expressed his disappointment, stating that Reddy had failed to disclose all the details about his trip to the Ministry of External Affairs a fortnight before his departure.

Praveen Kumar mocked Reddy's claim, likening his visit to those of BRS leaders K.T. Rama Rao and T. Harish Rao, who were not ministers or chief ministers, and thus, their trips were personal endeavors. He pointed out that Reddy's visits, however, were of a diplomatic nature. Praveen Kumar brought up Telangana's self-esteem issue, questioning the state's current situation when Andhra Pradesh was diverting substantial amounts of water from the Srisailam reservoir while Telangana's in-basin areas were grappling with drought conditions.

He alleged that Reddy's intention for the US visit was to promote his Future City project, which involved acquiring approximately 3,000 acres of land.
