Hyderabad, Nov 14 Attacking the BJP-led government at the Centre, Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy on Saturday claimed that the government must stop working for the rich and ensure the welfare of common people.
Speaking at the Bharat Summit hosted by the Telangana government on November 13 and 14, he also alleged that the Union Government cancelled visas for many foreign delegates, though the government invited more than 1,000 delegates from 70 countries.
He said globally two forces are opposing each other. While one wants democracy, the other wants to destroy democracy, he said.
“We stand for the Constitution and rule of law. They want to destroy the Constitution and impose dictatorship,” he said.
Reddy said all countries are facing similar problems such as attacks on fundamental rights, education, jobs, healthcare and inflation after globalisation and the COVID-19 pandemic.
Observing that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is fighting for “voting rights for all citizens” and social justice, he called upon the gathering to support the former in the “fight” to bring about a change.
“Government must stop working for the rich. Government should work for the common man. Globally, we are facing the same problems. Come. Let us all fight together under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi. We will protect our country with these ideas,” the chief minister said.
