Hyderabad: BJP national President J.P. Nadda said on Tuesday that Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao has lost his mental balance due to the defeat of his party TRS in the Assembly by-elections.

The saffron party had to drop its plans of taking out a candle-light rally as the police refused permission for the same in view of the ban on rallies and meetings to check the spread of Covid-19. BJP leader said the series of protests over Sanjay’s arrest will continue and the party’s central leaders will come to Hyderabad every day to lead the same.

Chief Minister KCR is trying to suppress people’s democratic right to peacefully protest on the pretext of Covid-19. TRS government is functioning in the most undemocratic manner, and termed the developments of last two days as the murder of democracy, Said Nadda.

The government was exposed as when I asked him if I have the permission to go to Gandhiji’s statue and pay tributes, he said he doesn’t know. It was clear that the administration was bent upon stopping me but they did not have the answer,” he said.
