Hyderabad: Controversy erupted after Union Minister and BJP leader Bandi Sanjay Kumar made remarks mocking the victims affected by the HYDRAA demolition drive carried out by the Congress government in Telangana. Speaking during a BJP roadshow held at Shaikpet in Jubilee Hills on Saturday, the minister alleged that the state government was targeting poor families under the guise of removing illegal constructions.
Addressing the gathering, Bandi Sanjay claimed that the Congress government led by Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy was demolishing the homes of Hindu families, while “pretending to show empathy.” He went on to say, “Big screens are displaying their cries, but all those tears seem to be an act. Even if they don’t cry, they wipe their eyes for the cameras.”

The remarks have added to the ongoing political tension surrounding the HYDRAA demolition campaign, which has already drawn both public support and criticism depending on the political divide.
