Telangana Assembly elections: Congress cutaways show KCR and Owaisi as ‘Modi’s puppets’ | WATCH
The cutouts, which show Prime Minister Modi pulling the proverbial strings of Owaisi and KCR, were installed by the Telangana Congress in Hyderabad ahead of the Prime Minister’s visit.
Telangana Assembly Election: The Congress on Saturday launched a stinging attack on their opposition in the upcoming Telangana elections, installing a cartoonish cutout in the middle of the city of Hyderabad, depicting Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao (KCR) and AIMIM supremo Asaduddin Owaisi as “puppets” from Prime Minister Narendra Modi. .
The cutouts, which show Prime Minister Modi pulling the proverbial strings of Owaisi and KCR, were installed by the Telangana Congress in Begumpet and Hi-Tech City, which are among the arterial roads in Hyderabad.
The Congress’s innovative ground campaign comes ahead of Prime Minister Modi’s visit to Hyderabad on Saturday.
The Congress, which has often referred to the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) and the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) as the ‘B-Teams’ of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), poked fun at KCR and Owaisi to show the two leaders as “puppets” of Modi, held on the strings in the hands of the Prime Minister.

The cutouts also appeared at many places in the city just before Prime Minister Modi was to address a public meeting in Secunderabad as part of the BJP’s election campaign.
The Congress election campaign has enthralled both the electorate and political leaders in Telangana.
Before his cut-out antics, the Telangana Congress took out a pink car and deflated it, as part of their poll campaign for the elections. The act involved the party symbol of the BRS, a car. The party used a pink car on Friday because pink is the color of the BRS party flag.
The car was colored pink to draw attention to the alleged scam associated with the BRS.
While exhibiting the car to the public, the Congress party stated that the pink car was a visual representation of the scams and irregularities led by the KCR-led government.
BJP alleges a nexus between Congress and BRS
Ironically, the BJP has leveled similar allegations against the BRS, telling voters that a vote for the ruling dispensation indirectly means they are voting for the Congress, indicating a link between the old party and the KCR-led BRS.
If you vote for BRS, it is like voting for Congress,” Union Minister and Telangana BJP president G Kishan Reddy said at a poll rally in Hyderabad on Thursday.
“If you vote for BRS it is like voting for Congress, if you vote for Congress it is like voting for BRS and if you vote for BRS or Congress it is like voting for AIMIM. BJP has done a lot of development in the constituency and hopes to continue to do so,” Reddy said.
