Hyderabad (Telangana): BRS working president K T Rama Rao on Friday alleged that the government led by Arvind Kejriwal was brought down in the name of a “so-called liquor scam” and claimed that the political fallout of the narrative impacted the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) in both the Assembly and Parliament elections.
Speaking after court relief to party MLC K Kavitha, Rao said that justice had prevailed and asserted that cases registered against BRS leaders would eventually be exposed as “false, politically motivated, and fabricated”.
“The AAP Govt led by Kejriwal was brought down in the name of the so-called liquor scam, and the political casualty of that narrative was the Bharat Rashtra Samithi in both the Assembly & Parliament elections. Kavita Garu got justice in court today, and in the same manner, every case registered against our leaders will be conclusively exposed as false, politically motivated, and fabricated. Until that truth prevails, we will continue to witness reckless allegations from the Congress and the BJP, amplified by media trials designed to malign and mislead. Unfortunately, this has now become the new norm in the “New India”, where accusations replace evidence, and media narratives attempt to substitute due process,” KTR said on X.
