BJP Eyes 'Double-Engine Government' in Telangana

Reddy said that the BJP is intensifying efforts to establish a "double-engine government" in Telangana in the 2027 Assembly elections. While speaking to reporters, Reddy said, "A major rally, led by the BJP, is scheduled to take place in Hyderabad on the 10th of this month. In this context, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be visiting Hyderabad. A large public meeting will also be held as part of this visit. Furthermore, the BJP is actively striving to establish a double-engine government in Telangana. This aspiration stems from the fact that over the past ten years, spanning the BRS government's tenure and the subsequent two-and-a-half years under the Congress government, not a single promise made to the public has been fulfilled. Consequently, Telangana is currently grappling with a severe economic and financial crisis."
