Hitting out at Union Minister G Kishan Reddy, the Chief Minister alleged that industries interested in investing in Telangana were being 'diverted' to Gujarat at the behest of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Hyderabad: Congress will remain in power in the state for 10 years, till 2034, Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy said on Sunday.

Reddy addressed 'Meet the Press' and slammed BRS. He alleged that BRS failed to complete several projects despite earning an average annual revenue of around Rs 2 lakh crore during its ten-year rule.

Taking a dig at Union Minister G Kishan Reddy, the CM said that industries interested in investing in the state were being "diverted" to Gujarat at the behest of PM Narendra Modi.

Reddy said that his government has 'no intention of fighting with the Centre'.

He said, "From 1994 to 2004, the TDP ruled for 10 years, and from 2004 to 2014, the Congress was in power in the (then) united Andhra Pradesh. From 2014, the BRS ruled Telangana for almost 10 years, and again from 2024 to 2034, the Congress will be in power. This is a determined mandate by the people."

Reddy who is confident that Congress will win the Jubilee Hills Assembly bypoll, predicted that BJP would lose its deposit and the BRS would be 'vanquished'.

He also asserted that BRS had 'donated its organs to the BJP by resorting to suicide' in the last Lok Sabha elections, indirectly supporting the saffron party in 2024.
