The ritual assumes significance particularly because Reddy had earlier targeted BRS chief K Chandrashekar Rao (KCR), during the latter's stint as the CM, for performing similar yagams.
On Monday, Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy performed a ritual – “Varuna Yagam” – on the banks of the Nagarjuna Sagar Dam to seek “bountiful rains” in the state.
The ritual assumes significance particularly because Reddy had earlier targeted BRS chief K Chandrashekar Rao (KCR), during the latter’s stint as the CM, for performing similar yagams.
On Tuesday, BRS working president KT Rama Rao said that CM Reddy performing rituals would serve no purpose if public issues were not addressed.
He said instead of indulging in mere diversionary tactics, Reddy should switch on the Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Scheme motors to supply water to farmers.
