Week to count Congress IOUs
BRS will spend seven days from September 2 taking the Congress government’s “1,000 days” to the doorstep — with receipts, and with the Baaki Card back out.
The BRS campaign will seek answers on promises made and delivered.
The BRS is launching a week-long statewide campaign from September 2 to press its case that the Congress government’s big-ticket promises in Telangana remain unpaid. The plan, issued by BRS working president K. T. Rama Rao in a teleconference with party leaders on August 23, was reported by multiple outlets. It will run programmes at village, ward, mandal and constituency levels, targeting women, farmers, youth, students, Dalits, BCs, tribals, auto drivers, government employees and pensioners.
The frame is timed to the government’s “1,000 days” in office — Chief Minister Revanth Reddy was sworn in on December 7, 2023, which puts early September in that neighbourhood. BRS says it will revive its Baaki Cards drive and take alleged unfulfilled guarantees and grievances to people directly, including claimed arrears like fee reimbursement. Those are BRS assertions; the party has not published the underlying figures in a document we could check here.
What is on the record: the Congress campaigned on six guarantees it said it would roll out within 100 days, alongside a raft of manifesto promises and group-specific declarations. What is missing so far is a straight answer from the Congress-led Telangana government on how many of those are actually delivered, how many are partial, and what is still pending. If the Congress wants to avoid a week of Baaki Card selfies, it can start by listing what it has cleared — with numbers, not slogans.
