Show the proof, or stop
BRS’s Manne Krishank says Congress and BJP are linking KTR to Globarena/Coempt without evidence, and points to the company’s dealings with Congress-run institutions. The record supports parts of that — and leaves big claims on both sides unproven.
The public record contains contracts and allegations, but no proof of the central link.
BRS spokesperson Manne Krishank accused Congress and the BJP of running a campaign tying KT Rama Rao to Globarena Technologies, now Coempt Edu Teck, and challenged them to produce evidence. His remarks, reported from a Saturday press meet, also pointed to the company’s past work with state institutions under Congress governments. According to that account, he cited a 2013 JNTU engagement and later university contracts to ask why those links weren’t being questioned.
What the record supports: Globarena and Coempt are the same entity under a new name, per company-record reporting. Separate reporting documents an MoU signed on November 4, 2013 between JNTU Kakinada and Globarena for e‑learning content, later terminated amid a dispute in which the university alleged a Rs 26.63 crore loss; proceedings were reported pending. The company has also featured in scrutiny over examinations, including the 2019 Telangana Intermediate results episode — relevant context for any present claims.
What it doesn’t: the core allegation that KTR owns or is linked to the company remains unproven in the public domain, as does Krishank’s broader charge of a coordinated Congress–BJP “propaganda” campaign. If either side has documents — corporate filings, contracts naming beneficial owners, or on‑record statements — they haven’t been produced in the reporting consulted. The bar is simple: show the paper, or drop the claim.
