Open challenge to KCR, KTR? Kavitha 'Akka' to begin four-month-long yatra in Telangana

Send Push
A month after being suspended from K Chandrasekhar Rao-led Bharat Rashtra Samithi ( BRS), former member of Parliament and Rao's daughter Kavitha Kalvakuntla has decided to embark on a four-month-long pan-Telangana yatra on October 25 to reconnect with the people across 33 districts as she plans to chart her own course.

In what is being seen as an open challenge to her father and former chief minister, as well as brother KT Rama Rao, Kalvakuntla has decided to re-energise her socio-cultural organisation Telangana Jagruthi with Jagruthi Janam Bata - roughly translated to "Jagruthi goes back to the people".

"I have been left at the crossroads by the party (BRS)," she told ET. "They (the party) could have asked me for an explanation for my remarks or issued me a show-cause notice. But they suspended me. They have broken my heart. There is no going back."
