Revanth Reddy gets relief as tribunal scraps Rs 50 lakh cash-for-voting case Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy and three others have secured relief from the Appellate Tribunal under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) after it set aside the confirmation of the Enforcement Directorate's Rs 50 lakh attachment in the 2015 cash-for-vote case.

#WATCH# | Hyderabad: Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy says, "The Telangana State Government has organised a 48-hour event—the 'Bharat Summit'—taking place on the 13th and 14th. Nearly a thousand invitees from 70 countries have arrived. We will hold discussions on topics such as the environment, infrastructure, investment, and democracy. Experts will engage in deliberations over these two days, and resolutions are expected to emerge. We intend to implement these resolutions within the state of Telangana. Furthermore, we aim to incorporate the suggestions that arise into future national policy—once Rahul Gandhi becomes the Prime Minister. This is not a new tradition; when Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru was Prime Minister, he initiated the Non-Alignment Movement, bridging the divide between the Left and the Right. Every subsequent Prime Minister has continued this practice in their own way. During his tenure as Prime Minister, Rajiv Gandhi once sent Atal Bihari Vajpayee—who was then in the opposition—as part of a delegation abroad. Rajiv Gandhi established a commendable precedent—a healthy convention of cooperation between the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition. Today, I would like to remind Modi that Rahul Gandhi is the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, a former Congress President, and the son and grandson of former Prime Ministers of India—leaders who sacrificed their lives for the nation. It is for this reason that Rahul Gandhi is visiting Telangana, at our invitation, to unveil our 'Gig Workers Policy.' He is also here to deliver a message on behalf of the nation at the Bharat Summit. I fail to understand why the BJP finds this problematic..." (Source: I&PR Dept., Telangana)

“Next Telangana” declares hon @AmitShah - “RR Tax is Rahul Tax through Revanth Reddy.” - “Rahul ji, if EVMs are faulty, how did your Revanth Reddy become Chief Minister? How did your government come to power in Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Himachal Pradesh? If EVMs are so bad, you should not have taken the oath of office.” - “When you win, the credit goes to the people, but when you lose, you blame the EVMs.” - “I challenge you today from the land of Hyderabad. We are ready to convene a special session of Parliament. Come and participate in a discussion.” - “Rahul ji, listen to me. Two days ago, you held a mock Parliament. If you had asked me, I would have suggested that you become Prime Minister at least once in this mock Parliament without becoming the Leader of the Opposition.” - “Because you will never be able to become Prime Minister in the real Parliament. At least if you become Prime Minister in a mock Parliament, Sonia ji’s heart will find some peace.” - “Rahul ji, Revanth ji put in as much effort as you want; we will ensure that every single infiltrator is removed from the electoral rolls.” - Hon @narendramodi ji won in 2019 as well. There was no SIR then. Did Modi ji win or not? He won because of the voters of India.” - “The Congress party wants to capture elections through bogus voting. If one person has two votes, should one of them be cancelled or not?” - “Now we come to the source of ‘Rahul Baba’s’ stomach ache. Three crore votes are such that the people they belong to do not even exist. These are Bangladeshi infiltrators.” - “Rahul ‘baba’ claims that 13 crore votes have been deleted. He is lying. Of these 13 crore entries, around 6.25 crore belong to people who have shifted to other places… The Congress party wants to win elections through bogus voting…” - “The Congress party itself is on a ventilator. Can this ventilator party run a marathon alongside Modi ji?” - “Rahul ji, forget Modi ji. Even my Telangana Yuva Morcha president will defeat you.” - “After 2024, we won in Maharashtra, Haryana, Delhi, Bihar, Bengal, Assam, and now we are set to win Telangana too.”

#WATCH# | Hyderabad, Telangana: On Telangana CM Revanth Reddy's remarks on the Congress-BJP alliance, BJP State President Ramchander Rao says, "...There is nothing new or surprising in his statement because the BJP has always been anti-Congress and against the Congress party. We believe that Congress has always supported forces that are actually divisive and try to divide the country in the name of caste, region, and other factors... We do not join hands with divisive forces. We do not view Congress as a party that believes in national integration... Revanth Reddy's comment that they will not join hands with the BJP is not surprising at all..."

#WATCH# | Hyderabad, Telangana: On CM Revanth Reddy's statement, BJP MP Eatala Rajendar says, "I want to ask them just one thing: the sacrifices made in Telangana surpassed those made during the broader struggle for India's liberation—whether by Subhash Chandra Bose, Bhagat Singh, or Gandhiji... A thousand people perished in a single location... Even after independence in 1947, when our flag was hoisted, the Nizam's forces killed twenty-two people from Telangana. A hundred people were killed in that single village. That is the history of the Nizam..."

#WATCH# | Hyderabad, Telangana: On the Bharat Summit 2026, Founder, Managing Trustee, and Director of the Samruddha Bharat Foundation (SBF India), Pushparaj Deshpande says, "I have helped organise the Bharat Summit under the leadership of Chief Minister Revanth Reddy and others, under the overall guidance of Salman Khurshid, Sam Pitroda and LoP Rahul Gandhi. This entire summit was curated as a Global South platform for progressives. We had over 323 delegates who had confirmed across 70 countries. Unfortunately, even though they were in full compliance of MEA guidelines and had political clearances, they were suddenly, abruptly rescinded. The visas were denied. Multiple things happened from the Government of India, and we have lost almost 116, 117 delegates. This is extremely unfortunate because all the people who were coming were either from progressive parties or ruling governments: South Africa, Brazil, Malaysia, the Philippines; all of these parties are in government, alongside South Korea. Now for us, for the Government of India to say that these parties are suddenly somehow coming to be anti-national and say that the Bharat Summit is anti-national is a bit penny-wise, pound-foolish..."

#WATCH# | Hyderabad | On US President Donald Trump's post, BJP State President Ramchander Rao says, "The Congress party, led by figures like Rahul Gandhi, has been claiming that India has surrendered to the US and President Donald Trump. However, their own Chief Minister, Revanth Reddy, has named a lane after Donald Trump, which is a hypocritical attitude. On one hand, they blame the country for surrendering to Trump or the US, while on the other, they name a street in Telangana, where they are in power, after Trump... BJP government at the centre has been renaming roads to decolonise the country, such as changing Aurangzeb Road to Abdul Kalam Road and Tughlaq Road to Vivekananda Road. The BJP supports decolonisation, whereas the Congress seems to favour colonialisation..."
