‘Drove his sister out of home… she went to jail for party’: Telangana CM Revanth Reddy slams KTR

Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy criticized BRS working president K Taraka Rama Rao (KTR) for allegedly driving his sister out of their family home, and for driving her to jail, following her alleged involvement in a liquor policy case in Delhi. Reddy made the remarks while addressing women Self Help Group (SHG) members in his home constituency, Kodangal.

KTR's sister, K Kavitha, had served a jail term for over five months in 2024. Reddy remarked that KTR "should have taken care of his sister," who had returned home after serving time, and questioned KTR's intentions. The CM also announced the distribution of free 'Indiramma' sarees to women on the birth anniversary of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, and stated that his government aims to extend the coverage of SHG members from 70 lakh to 1 crore by 2034.

Reddy questioned KTR's ability to talk about women's welfare after ill-treating his own sister, and also targeted KTR's father, BRS national president K Chandrashekar Rao (KCR), accusing him of failing to advise his son to treat his sister well.
