Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy has accused former leaders K Chandrasekhar Rao and T Harish Rao of causing severe injustice in river water utilization, stating they deserve harsh punishment. Reddy invoked a quote from a Telangana poet and compared the situation to the Ajmal Kasab trial to emphasize his point. The BRS party has retaliated, accusing Reddy of wishing death upon its leaders and defending their past actions regarding irrigation projects.
