The Story in Brief
In a setback for the ruling Congress in Telangana, nearly 50 families from the Aswaraopet Assembly constituency in Kothagudem district joined the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) on Monday. The switch happened in the presence of former BRS MLA Mecha Nageswara Rao. Those who left Congress said they were misled by the party's promises and felt better off under the previous BRS government.
The Indian Opinion
The narrative that Congress always deceives people while BRS alone cares for Telangana is one-sided. This claim from a BRS leader ignores that voters had rejected BRS in the 2023 assembly elections. The real test will be whether these 50 families actually stay with BRS or if similar defections happen in reverse before the next election. The number cited is small compared to the constituency's total voters.
