On cultural issues, Kavitha said Bathukamma celebrations drew participation from ‘Chintamadaka to London’ under Jagruti’s banner, crediting former CM KCR for promoting Telangana identity. She criticized the Revanth Reddy government for altering the Telangana Thalli statue design and said the current reservation allocations for local polls were confusing. Releasing caste census data would bring clarity, she added.
