# Bandi Sanjay attacks Congress, BRS on minority appeasement 2026-08-09T18:10:42+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Union Minister Bandi Sanjay Kumar accused the ruling Congress and the BRS of minority appeasement during Bonalu celebrations in Hyderabad on Sunday. He questioned why the government allocated only Rs 20 crore for Bonalu but Rs 33 crore for Ramzan, and alleged that funds were being denied for temple development because the government feared displeasing AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi. Sanjay also attacked the Congress over unfulfilled promises, including filling two lakh government posts and providing a Rs 4,000 monthly unemployment allowance. He credited Prime Minister Narendra Modi with providing 12 lakh jobs through Rozgar Melas. The minister promised grand Bonalu celebrations in Hyderabad's Old City if the BJP comes to power in Telangana. ## Coverage - telanganatoday.com Tags: Bandi Sanjay, Bonalu, BRS, Congress, minority appeasement, Telangana politics Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/bandi-sanjay-attacks-congress-brs-on-minority-appeasement/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
