Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday said that if the  BJP is voted to power in Telangana, it would make a leader from Other Backward Classes (OBC) community the Chief Minister of the state.

“Today, I want to tell the people of Telangana: You bless BJP and make a BJP government, BJP’s next chief minister of Telangana would be from the Backward Class. We have decided this,” he said while addressing an election rally at Suryapet.

“BRS is anti-poor and anti-weaker sections, as it has failed to fulfill promises made for their uplift, including distribution of three acres of land for each Dalit family,” he further said.

“KCR had promised a budget of Rs 50,000 crore for the welfare of SCs; has he made the said allocation,” Shah asked.

“KCR had promised to spend Rs 10,000 crore every year for the welfare of the Backward Class; what happened to the promise,” he further asked.

Attacking the ruling BRS, and the Congress, Shah said that both are dynastic parties and cannot do good for the state. “While BJP’s aim is the welfare of the poor, the aim of Congress and BRS is the welfare of their respective families,” he said.

“Only the BJP under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi can make Telangana a fully developed state,” he added.
