Telangana Chief Minister and State Congress Chief A. Revanth Reddy made bold predictions and delivered scathing criticism in a recent episode of Rajat Sharma’s ‘Aap Ki Adalat’ show on India TV.

In his predictions, Reddy suggested that Prime Minister Modi could secure between 214 to 240 Lok Sabha seats in the upcoming elections, despite the BJP’s earlier “Ab Ki Baar, 400 Paar” slogan. He attributed this forecast to ground realities, citing regional dynamics and national sentiment. Reddy emphasized the challenges BJP faces in the South, particularly in Karnataka and Telangana, where he estimated the party’s potential seats to be limited, the news channel said in a press release.

Moreover, Reddy launched a direct attack on Telangana’s former CM K. Chandrashekhar Rao and his party, Bharat Rashtra Samiti (BRS), alleging collusion with BJP to secure Lok Sabha seats. He accused BRS of accepting contracts to facilitate BJP wins in certain constituencies, asserting his commitment to his party and principles.

Addressing accusations of Congress leaders defecting, Reddy attributed it to legal pressures, insinuating government coercion. He denied offering inducements like “ICE or NICE” to lure defectors and humorously dismissed such notions.

Regarding economic ties with industrialist Gautam Adani, Reddy defended his engagement, emphasizing job creation and investment opportunities for Telangana. He countered allegations of facilitating ‘loot,’ stating his commitment to protecting the interests of his state.

In a separate discussion on Arvind Kejriwal’s arrest, Reddy criticized the timing and legality of the action, labeling it as politically motivated. He questioned the government’s integrity in handling corruption cases and highlighted its implications on electoral dynamics.

Reddy also addressed speculation about Congress projecting a southern leader for the prime ministerial candidacy, advocating for regional representation in national leadership.

In summary, Reddy’s appearance on ‘Aap Ki Adalat’ was marked by bold predictions, political jabs, and staunch defense of his party’s stance and actions, offering insights into the evolving political landscape ahead of the elections.
