Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], May 6 : Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) candidate from Hyderabad Gaddam Srinivas Yadav on Monday said that he is confident that people will be voting for his party in the Lok Sabha elections.
"People are telling us that they will be voting for us. People in Begumbazar are saying that there was no curfew in the last 10 years and that they were engaged in business peacefully. Now communal politics is increasing. So they will be voting for KCR's party this time," Yadav told ANI while campaigning in Afzalgunj and Begum Bazar area of Hyderabad.
Hitting out at sitting Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi, the BRS leader said that he has failed to do any development work in the city throughout his tenure.
"Hyderabad is regarded to be a bastion of Owaisi where no development took place. If he had done any developmental work he should tell people and ask for votes from them. He has failed in the last 40 years," Yadav said.
Lauding the work done by the former BRS government when they were in power in Telangana, Yadav said, "KCR has developed Hyderabad in the last 10 years by implementing schemes for every community. Hence people want to vote for us as they think that we are a good secular party."
In the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) (now known as the BRS) won 9 seats, the BJP secured 4 seats, the Congress won 3 seats, and the AIMIM emerged victorious in 1 seat.
The voting of the first and second phases was concluded and the next round of voting will be held on May 7. The counting of votes will be held on June 4.
