BJP Slams Rahul Gandhi for Prioritising Footballer Messi’s Visit Over Telangana’s Crises
Sanjay highlighted several pressing issues, including demolition of houses of the poor by HYDRAA, student deaths from food poisoning, suicides among farmers and weavers, unpaid pensions and retirement benefits, mounting fee reimbursement dues, open collection of commissions, broad-daylight murders, temple demolitions, and unfulfilled "six guarantees and 420 promises."
Hyderabad: Union minister for state Bandi Sanjay Kumar accused Congress leader Rahul Gandhi of ignoring Telangana's mounting woes while rushing to the state for a high-profile football event featuring global icon Lionel Messi.
Kumar mocked Gandhi's earlier promise to reach Telangana "in a minute" when needed, claiming his "clock only ticks for VIP events and photo ops." Sanjay contrasted Gandhi's presence for the football match with his alleged absence amid plethora of governance failures under the Congress administration in the state.

"Absent during suffering. On vacation during chaos. Fully present when the spotlight is on," Kumar concluded, accusing Gandhi of giving a football star priority over "Telangana’s pain."
