During the recent filing, K Chandrasekhar Rao disclosed family assets close to Rs 59 crore, including those under "Hindu Undivided Family," along with liabilities amounting to Rs 25 crore.
FollowTelangana Chief Minister Chandrasekhar Rao has revealed his family's assets, totaling Rs 58.92 crore, in the affidavit submitted during his nomination filing for the upcoming 2023 Telangana Assembly Elections. This comes as part of the leader's commitment to transparency in electoral processes. Notably, despite his association with the car symbol of BRS, Rao declared not owning any cars or agricultural land. Ironically, despite this, he identified himself as an agriculturist.
On Thursday, November 9, the head of BRS, KCR, submitted his nomination papers for both Gajwel and Kamareddy seats, reinforcing his political standing in the state. In the 2018 elections, KCR had reported assets of Rs 22 crore and had previously declared not owning any cars. However, in 2015, his convoy included four Toyota Landcruiser Prados.
