Hyderabad, December 18: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Ponguleti Sudhakar Reddy on Saturday slammed the state government over Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS)'s decision to stage a protest against the Centre.

The BJP leader said, "the state chief minister K Chandrasekar Rao (KCR) had released a statement asking all villagers in the state to protest against Centre and burn the effigies of Prime Minister Narendra Modi." Also Read | Hyderabad: Two Men Gang-Rape Married Woman by Threatening To Expose Her Extra-Marital Affair, Arrested.

"This kind of behaviour of Rao is wrong, the BJP condemns the Chief minister's decision," Reddy said. The BJP leader said the chief minister is losing his balance after the loss in the Huzurabad election and has also failed to fulfil his promises to farmers and unemployed youth. Also Read | Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray Seeks PM Narendra Modi's Intervention Over Alleged Desecration of Shivaji Maharaj's Statue in Bengaluru.

Reddy said "instead of solving people's issues, the chief minister is trying to instigate people for destruction." "This is nothing but the TRS party's tactics to divert people from their failures and to target BJP," Reddy alleged.

The leader further appealed to people and farmers of the state not to fall for the chief minister's undemocratic statement and maintain peace.
