CM, Ministers delivering people's governance, says Jagga Reddy

Hans India6 days ago
Hyderabad: Telangana PCC working president T Jagga Reddy asserted here on Friday that Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy and ministers were delivering people's governance, whereas KCR's 10 years were farmhouse governance.
Addressing the press at Gandhi Bhavan, Reddy said the CM and ministers were visiting Delhi to bring funds for Telangana, unlike KCR, who never met the central government. The BRS leaders appear nervous and paranoid. 'We don't need to spy on them, if we want to counter them, we'll do it politically. KCR is scared to face Revanth Reddy directly, that's why he avoids attending the Assembly. Harish Rao is acting like a big actor, while Uttam Kumar Reddy is a true fighter, a former fighter pilot', he remarked.
He stated that the BRS leaders question why Revanth doesn't say 'Jai Telangana', but they removed 'Telangana' from their own party name (TRS to BRS). 'Answer that first,' he demanded.
'People are aware of what happened during KCR's 10 years as CM. He stayed away from the Secretariat and public and never engaged with the Centre. After losing power, the BRS leaders are in shock because they lost their luxuries', he said.
Reddy said the CM and ministers are working to secure central funds. 'That's their duty as elected leaders. The BRS leaders were resting in farmhouses while we're fulfilling responsibilities the people entrusted to us', he said.
He told the BRS leaders: 'During your rule, people didn't even know where the Secretariat was. KCR and his family kept meeting Jagan and Lokesh secretly while in power, even under BJP direction in farmhouses'.
The senior Congress leader advised KTR: 'Don't demand answers from Revanth about 'Jai Telangana' when your party dropped 'Telangana' from its own name'. He described Harish Rao as a good actor. But Uttam isn't one; he's a real fighter.
He said KCR was a TDP MLA three times, even a minister and Deputy Speaker before Revanth even joined politics.'So who really is the student of Chandrababu? KCR or Revanth? Stop calling Revanth a follower of Chandrababu when your own father served in his Cabinet. Congress runs people-centric governance; KCR only did farmhouse politics', he said.

‘Atrocious and terrible': TMC expresses shock at detention of Bengali-speaking workers in Gurugram

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday said she was shocked at reports alleging that several migrant Bengali-speaking workers were being detained in Gurugram in Haryana. 'This is atrocious and terrible,' the Trinamool Congress chief said on X. 'We are not going to tolerate this.' On July 19, the police in Gurugram detained at least 74 migrant workers on the suspicion that they were from Bangladesh, The Wire reported. Of these, 11 were from West Bengal and 63 from Assam. The workers have been detained at a municipal community centre in Gurugram's Sector 10A, Newslaundry reported. Amid the crackdown, hundreds of migrant workers have reportedly fled Gurugram for fear of being detained. Since the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, Bengali-speaking migrant workers have been rounded up by the police in several states ruled by the Bharatiya Janata Party and asked to prove that they are Indian citizens. In some cases, individuals who were mistakenly sent to Bangladesh returned to the country after state authorities in India proved that they were Indians. Banerjee on Thursday said she also received reports from other states like Rajasthan about West Bengal residents being 'pushed' into Bangladesh although they had official documentation. 'There are tortures and tortures on hapless poor Bengali workers from West Bengal in these States,' she said. '…Stop this linguistic terror.' Have been increasingly receiving reports of detentions of and atrocities on our Bengali-speaking people from different districts of West Bengal in Gurgaon, Haryana. West Bengal police is receiving these reports from Haryana police in the name of requests for identity searches.… — Mamata Banerjee (@MamataOfficial) July 24, 2025 In a similar vein, Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra asked whether the Sector 10A community centre was being used as an illegal detention camp. 'This is illegal,' she asserted, 'This is like living in Nazi Germany, where the Jews were being completely terrorised and [were] living in constant fear of being picked up and put in camps.' Moitra said that migrant workers could not be branded as Bangladeshis merely because they spoke in Bengali. Attention! Migrant workers from Bengal being picked up illegally by @gurgaonpolice, is Sector 10 A community center an illegal detention camp? Maids, cooks, menial workers living in complete terror. #NaziGermany — Mahua Moitra (@MahuaMoitra) July 24, 2025 Commenting on the allegations, Gurugram Police Public Relations Officer Sandeep Kumar was quoted as saying by The Wire that the 'suspected immigrants' were being held as per government guidelines, and claiming that they were not being detained. However, he did not specify what the guidelines were. 'They are not detained,' Kumar was quoted as saying by the news portal. 'As per the guidelines of the Ministry of Home Affairs [MHA], certain holding centres have been created, and suspected Bangladeshis are being kept there. All basic necessities, including medical facilities, are being provided to them at the centres.'

Delhi court reserves verdict on issuing notice to Robert Vadra in land deal case

New Delhi: A Delhi court on Thursday reserved its decision on issuing a notice to businessman Robert Vadra, son-in-law of former Congress President Sonia Gandhi, in connection with a money laundering case linked to a land deal in Haryana's Shikohpur. The Rouse Avenue Court will likely pronounce its verdict on July 31 regarding the issuance of a notice to Vadra, the husband of Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra. The Enforcement Directorate (ED) had filed a prosecution complaint under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), claiming that Vadra's Skylight Hospitality 'fraudulently' purchased 3.53 acres of land situated in the village of Shikohpur in Haryana's Gurugram district through 'false declaration'. During the hearing, advocate Zoheb Hossain, appearing for the ED, stated that the sale deed falsely declared a payment of Rs 7.5 crore, whereas in reality, no such payment was made. This amount was paid at a later stage to evade stamp duty, a fact that has been confirmed by key witnesses, added Hossain. Further, the federal anti-money laundering agency claimed that Vadra, 'through his personal influence', obtained a commercial license on the land purchased. As per the ED, the land was later sold to DLF at a higher price, and this aspect of the case is still under investigation. In April this year, Vadra was questioned in multiple rounds by the ED, during which his statement was also recorded. The land purchase deal in question was executed in February 2008 when Congress was at the helm in Haryana, and Bhupinder Singh Hooda was the Chief Minister. The mutation process, which usually takes months, was done the next day. Months later, Vadra received a permit to develop a housing society on the land, and the value of the plot increased. He sold it to DLF in June at Rs 58 crore. Suspecting the proceeds to be part of a money laundering scheme, the ED has been probing the trail behind the windfall gains. In October 2012, IAS officer Ashok Khemka (now retired), who was then posted as the Director General of Land Consolidation and Land Records-cum-Inspector-General of Registration of Haryana, cancelled the land purchase deal, citing procedural irregularities. Later in 2013, an in-house government panel gave a clean chit to both Vadra as well as DLF. When the BJP-led government came to power, an FIR was registered by the Haryana Police against former Chief Minister Hooda, Vadra, and others.

Varsha Gaikwad clarifies stand after criticism over remarks on 11/7 blasts acquittals

Mumbai: A day after Congress city president and MP Varsha Gaikwad was criticised by Muslim leaders for calling the acquittals of the 11/7 blasts accused "disheartening and unfortunate", she clarified her stand. In a video clip, Gaikwad said: "Do not put your words in my mouth. I am a follower of Baba Saheb Ambedkar and follow the Constitution written by him. I asked the govt how the 11/7 accused, who lost their 19 years in jail, will be compensated. I also asked the govt what it is doing to catch the real culprits and how justice will be done to the families who lost their loved ones." Several community leaders slammed Gaikwad for her social media post, requesting the state govt to challenge the High Court verdict in the Supreme Court. Leaders said that Gaikwad won her Lok Sabha seat because Muslims overwhelmingly supported her.
