Hyderabad: Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) senior leader T Harish Rao visited the Martyrs Memorial (Gun Park) in the city and issued his resignation letter to media personnel, displaying his readiness to resign as an MLA if Telangana chief minister A Revanth Reddy fulfils the Congress party’s farm loan waiver promise by August 15.
Addressing the media at the memorial after paying tributes to the Martyrs, the former finance minister said that the chief minister should also submit his resignation letter to intellectuals and the media as a promise to fulfil loan waiver by August 15.
“My resignation letter is ready here in the Assembly Speakers’ format. My MLAship is not more important than farmers benefiting due to crop loan waiver. The chief minister must do the same…” Rao said.
He also demanded an apology from the grand old party for its “inability” to fulfil crop loan waiver and other poll promises within 100 days of the party coming to power.
“Sonia Gandhi had promised that the Congress government would deliver its promises within 100 days in a letter to Telangana’s people,” he added.
