Trust BRS not Political Tourists: KCR
Husnabad/Hyderabad: Asking people not to get confused and deceived by the Opposition rhetoric and vote after thinking, BRS chief K Chandrashekar Rao on Sunday said the party would be winning 95-105 seats in the ensuing elections. It would continue the agenda set for the State.
The BRS chief launched the party campaign from Husnabad Assembly constituency. He handed over B-form to party candidate V Satish from the venue of the public meeting.
