KCR's statement comes a day after three people who tried to "poach" four TRS legislators were arrested and remanded to judicial custody.
Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao on Sunday alleged that the BJP was trying to 'buy' 20 or 30 MLAs of the ruling TRS and topple his government.
Addressing a poll rally at bypoll-bound Munugode Rao segment, Mr Rao referred to the TRS MLAs case and said “brokers” from Delhi came and attempted to bribe the MLAs by offering Rs 100 crore each. However, the legislators, who are real sons of the soil, rebuffed the offer.
“You have seen yesterday. (BJP thinks) KCR is talking loudly. Let's see his (political) end. They have sent brokers to buy each MLA for Rs 100 crore. They wanted to buy 20 or 30 MLAs and topple KCR's government and encroach Telangana so that they can implement privatisation as per their will,” Mr Rao alleged.
His statement comes a day after three people who tried to "poach" four TRS legislators were arrested and remanded to judicial custody.
