In Telangana, Chief Minister Revant Reddy's recent remarks about gathering 1,000 crores for the Gandhi family have sparked significant political controversy. Reddy stated that Telangana Congress workers are ready to raise such funds if the Gandhi family is in economic distress, prompting sharp criticism from the opposition BJP. This incident highlights the growing tensions between the ruling Congress party and the BJP as both sides engage in a heated war of words over party loyalty and financial support.

Reddy defended the Gandhi family's contributions over three generations, emphasizing their sacrifices for the country and questioning the importance of money to them. He expressed confidence that Congress workers in Telangana could easily mobilize even larger sums, challenging the notion that financial constraints could affect the Gandhi family. This defense seems to aim at rallying the party's base around the idea of loyalty and historical sacrifice, reinforcing the Congress party's narrative of being the essence of India.

In response, BJP leaders, including Amit Malviya and NV Subhash, reacted strongly to Reddy's comments, labeling them as outrageous and questioning the priorities of the Congress party. This political drama not only reflects the existing rivalry between Congress and BJP in India but also indicates a broader struggle over political narratives and the implications of party allegiance in electoral politics in the region.
