Hyderabad: Former Minister and senior MLA T Harish Rao condemned the arrest of National Award-winning actor Allu Arjun, calling it an act of misplaced priorities by the State administration. He rebuked the Congress government for a series of governance failures, leading to deaths of citizens.
“It is deeply saddening that Revathi lost her life in a stampede while attending a movie screening. But who authorised the benefit shows? Who screened the film without adequate precautions? The real culprits are the rulers of the State,” he said, blaming the Congress government for its negligence.
Drawing attention to other incidents under the Congress regime, Harish Rao questioned why the Chief Minister’s brothers have been spared despite their alleged role in several tragedies. “If former sarpanch Sai Reddy of Kondareddypalli, the Chief Minister’s native village, leaves behind a suicide note blaming harassment by Revanth Reddy’s brothers, why aren’t they arrested? If farmer Surender Reddy commits suicide at Medchal agriculture office over ration card issues and loan waiver delays, why isn’t action taken against the CM?” he questioned.
The BRS legislator charged the government for failing to act on critical issues, citing the deaths of farmers, food poisoning incidents in hostels leading to 49 student deaths, and the devastation of tribal lives in Lagacherla due to land acquisition for a pharma village. “The law should respond not only in Allu Arjun’s case but also against Revanth Reddy and his brothers. The law must be impartial and hold everyone accountable,” he asserted.
