BRS' KTR holds meeting to roll out 'Due Card Movement', targets Congress

Medchal-Malkajgiri (Telangana) [India], October 6 (ANI): A meeting was organised at the Medchal BRS district office under the leadership of District President and MLC Shambhipur Raju after the BRS Working President KTR asked to take the Due Card Movement across the Medchal district to create awareness among the public about the empty promises made by the Congress government.

The meeting was attended by the party public representatives and key leaders.

Distinct attendees were Former Minister Malla Reddy, MLAs including Madhavaram Krishna Rao, Vivekanand Goud, Bandari Lakshma Reddy, Marri Rajasekhar Reddy, along with Malkajgiri MP candidate Ragidi Lakshma Reddy.

The leaders criticised the Congress government for completely misleading the public with 420 promises given at the time of elections. They stated that the BRS party is taking the Due Card to the public to expose the Congress fraudulent attitude and deception towards the people.

Meanwhile, KTR condemned the decision of the Telangana Chief Minister Revnath Reddy-led government to increase the city bus fare in Hyderabad by ₹10, calling it a cruel conspiracy to exploit poor and middle-class commuters.

The new fares, which came into effect on October 6, will add an extra burden of at least ₹500 per month on regular commuters.

KTR criticised the decision, stating that the increased fare comes at a time when the general public is already facing rising prices of essential commodities. Speaking on behalf of the economically weaker sections of society, KTR raised a question to the Chief Minister, asking how the underprivileged and daily wage earners would adjust to the hike, which now poses an additional burden of Rs 500 per month.

It wasnt enough that the charges for student bus passes and T-24 tickets were increased -- now, even the basic fare has been hiked by 50 without any compassion. This reflects Revanth Reddy incompetent and undemocratic governance, KTR said angrily. (ANI)
