Revanth Reddy’s Rule Is Not Public Governance but Misrule: Patnam Narender Reddy

Former Kodangal MLA Patnam Narender Reddy has strongly criticised Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, alleging that the state is witnessing misrule instead of people-centric governance. On Monday, police stopped him at Pargi while he was travelling to Kodangal to console the family of a BRS party worker who had passed away. Speaking to the media alongside former MLA Koppula Mahesh Reddy and other BRS leaders, Narender Reddy questioned the police action, stating that he was being prevented from visiting the bereaved family.

Narender Reddy alleged that the Congress government had wasted ₹150 crore of public money by organising women's and farmers' meetings over three days, claiming that the move was prompted by reports suggesting that Revanth Reddy could face defeat in Kodangal. He also criticised the government for allegedly failing to provide the fine-grain paddy bonus to farmers in Vikarabad district. Meanwhile, Koppula Mahesh Reddy questioned why the Chief Minister was apprehensive about Narender Reddy visiting Kodangal.
