Congress Leader Condemns BJP Protest Against Bharat Summit
Narender Reddy alleged that the BJP-led Union government was weakening constitutional institutions while supporting capitalists: Reports
KARIMNAGAR: Senior Congress leader and former Satavahana Urban Development Authority (Suda) chairman Komatireddy Narender Reddy criticised BJP leaders for staging a protest against the Bharat Summit organised by the state government.
Speaking to reporters on Sunday, he condemned the BJP’s opposition to Rahul Gandhi’s participation in the summit, where discussions were held on international issues.
Narender Reddy alleged that the BJP-led Union government was weakening constitutional institutions while supporting capitalists. He cited industrialist Gautam Adani’s rise from the 600th position on the list of the world’s richest people to the second position over the past 12 years, claiming that this had happened during the BJP’s rule.
He said Rahul Gandhi had spent considerable time listening to the speeches of experts at the summit. He criticized Union minister of state for home Bandi Sanjay Kumar for claiming that Rahul Gandhi had left the meeting midway, describing the statement as baseless.
Narender Reddy said it was not appropriate for the union minister to make such remarks.
