Slamming the Congress government for the “alarming display of lawlessness,” Rao alleged that the police stood mutely as a group of men entered the premises and tore the banners.
Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy, on Friday, predicted that the BRS would soon merge with the BJP and party chief K Chandrasekhar Rao will be appointed a governor, his son and former industry minister KT Rama Rao will be inducted in the Union Cabinet.
