Launching an attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Telangana cabinet minister KT Rama Rao said on Wednesday the slogan “Beti bachao Beti padhao” has turned into “Beti darao Beti dhamkao” under BJP rule.
The minister was addressing a public meeting after inauguration of various development works at Adibatla on the outskirts of Hyderabad.
“See what is happening in neighbouring Karnataka. Girls going to schools and colleges are being threatened. A divide has been created among students in the name of religion and the educational institutions are closed for three days,” he said.
KTR said the country was being run as per the Constitution of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, alleging that Modi had taken control of all institutions including Governors and the Election Commission. He pointed out how relations between the Governor and the Chief Minister in West Bengal were strained.
