Hyderabad (Telangana): The BJP’s Telangana president and MP Bandi Sanjay Kumar on Saturday attacked Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao for not receiving Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the airport, saying “when the tiger comes, foxes run away.”
“When the tiger comes, foxes run away. Now when the tiger has come, he (KCR) is running away, we do not know why is he doing this?” Kumar said while talking to the media.
The chief of the Telangana unit of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) also expressed confidence that soon the party will form the government in the state. “In the coming days, saffron and lotus flags will be hoisted here,” Sanjay Kumar added.
This comes after KCR, as Rao is popularly known, did not receive PM Modi at the airport in Hyderabad on Saturday.
PM Modi has arrived in the city to participate in the two-day long BJP National Executive meeting. The two-day Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) National Executive meeting will start in Hyderabad on Saturday.
However, the chief minister received the Opposition's presidential candidate Yashwant Sinha at the Begumpet Airport in Hyderabad just a couple of hours before PM Modi lands at the same airport.
Notably, this is for the third time in six months that Telangana CM KCR skipped the protocol of receiving a visiting Prime Minister in the state.
Before this, he had flown to Bengaluru in May when PM Modi visited the state to attend the 20th annual celebrations at the Indian School of Business (ISB). In February this year, KCR had remained absent during the Prime Minister’s visit to Hyderabad.
Earlier, KCR came down heavily on the BJP government at the Centre, accusing it of killing democracy and federal system in the country.
Addressing a meeting organised by his Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) after welcoming Sinha, KCR alleged that the Centre is letting loose repression on those raising their voice against him.
