Harish Rao rubbishes rumours, reaffirms loyalty to KCR and BRS

He urged people not to believe in the false propaganda against him, asserting that he remained a loyal soldier of BRS and party chief K Chandrashekhar Rao

Hyderabad: Senior BRS leader and former Minister T Harish Rao on Tuesday dismissed reports suggesting internal rifts within the party and speculation about his possible exit, calling them utterly baseless. He urged people not to believe in the false propaganda against him, asserting that he remained a loyal soldier of BRS and party chief K Chandrashekhar Rao.

He reminded that he had already condemned the false propaganda, while party leaders Dasoju Sravan and Errolla Srinivas had filed a police complaint regarding the matter on his behalf. “I have also requested the DGP to take immediate action against those spreading fake news,” he stated.

Harish Rao reiterated his loyalty to Chandrashekhar Rao and BRS. “I have said it hundreds of times – K Chandrashekhar Rao is our leader, and I am a disciplined worker who strictly follows his directions,” he remarked.

On speculation about leadership changes within the party, he declared that if Chandrashekhar Rao decides to hand over the reins of the party to KT Rama Rao, he would follow that decision unconditionally. “My loyalty to Chandrashekhar Rao and the party is undisputed,” he declared.

Rejecting rumours of defection, he asserted that he was neither quitting the BRS, nor joining any other party.
