Hyderabad: A confidential letter written by BRS MLC K. Kavitha to her father and party chief K. Chandrashekar Rao (KCR) has surfaced on social media, triggering debate within political circles. The letter, which appears to offer candid feedback on the party’s recent foundation day celebrations, highlights internal dissatisfaction and missed political messaging.
Kavitha expressed disappointment over the tone and content of the meeting, stating that a more aggressive stance against the BJP would have strengthened the party’s message. She observed that while the mention of “Operation Kagar” was well-received by the cadre, the overall event lacked the vibrancy needed to energize grassroots workers.
Key Concerns Raised in the Letter:
The absence of speeches on key issues such as the Urdu language, the Wakf Bill, and Scheduled Caste categorization was termed “unfortunate.”
She reminded KCR about the unaddressed issue of 42% reservations for BCs.
Criticized the decision to assign meeting responsibilities solely to long-time in-charges, sidelining Telangana movement veterans.
Flagged concerns that old in-charges are likely to monopolize B-Form distribution in upcoming local elections.
Suggested that B-Forms for MP, MPTC, and ZPTC candidates be issued only by the state leadership.
Kavitha noted that while many party members were satisfied with the meeting, several had expected more punch in the speech. She said the public anticipated remarks on the Telangana Talli statue relocation and other symbolic issues, which were left unaddressed.
The MLC also lauded the restraint shown by not personally targeting Chief Minister Revanth Reddy but admitted that she too had concerns over a potential softening towards the BJP. Only two minutes were devoted to the BJP in the speech, she pointed out, which has led to speculation about a possible alliance—something she personally hoped would not happen, given her past experiences.
She further noted that senior leaders such as ZP Chairpersons, ZPTC members, and MLAs were reportedly disappointed over their limited access to KCR. Kavitha urged her father to personally meet more party members and address these concerns directly.
The emergence of this letter has fueled political chatter, especially in the backdrop of upcoming local body elections. It reflects growing tension within the party’s ranks and suggests a push for greater inclusivity and sharper political positioning moving forward.
