Hyderabad, Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy said on Monday that the time for debating the "failures" of the previous BRS government is over, and the ruling Congress should now prioritize its own vision.
Speaking at a meeting of the Congress Legislature Party (CLP) on the first day of the assembly's budget session, he said the roadmap laid out by the party and government now would serve as the agenda for the next assembly elections (in 2028).
Reddy's comments are significant as the Congress government is nearing the halfway mark of its five-year term.
According to him, the then CLP leaders Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka and K Jana Reddy were denied adequate time to speak in the assembly during the previous BRS regime.
CM Reddy recalled his own suspension from the assembly for an entire session, during which he was barred from attending the assembly proceedings.
He warned the Congress MLAs and MLCs against negligence in attending the assembly session and urged women members to actively participate in debates.
He suggested that MLAs and MLCs can tour other states and study the policies of the concerned governments.
Reddy also asked the legislators to effectively communicate the special 99-day action plan recently taken up by the government to the people.
