Take money from TRS but vote for BJP candidate: Bandi

State BJP chief kicks off his campaign for Huzurabad bypoll

Striking chords with people by asking “Mothers and sisters! Have you all got yourselves vaccinated and did you know Prime Minister Modi gave it for free?”, State BJP chief Bandi Sanjay Kumar kicked off his campaign for the Huzurabad bypoll on Wednesday.

In all the roadside shows on his first day of canvassing for party nominee Eatala Rajender, the Karimnagar MP tried to convince people that it was the BJP-ruled Central government that was giving more funds to villages. In Ankushapur, Madipally, Machanapalli, Saidabad, Vilasagar, Gandrapalli and Sayampet villages, where he campaigned, the MP read out precise details of Central funds allotted for construction of graveyards, building infrastructure and other programmes.

Realising that people cannot withstand the scorching heat, he was crisp, to the point and concluded each of his speech, laced with criticism of ruling TRS party policies, in less than 15 minutes. The Telangana BJP chief, known for his rabble-rousing talks, alleged that the ruling TRS was gearing up to give ₹20,000 for each vote this time.
