Does he have any secret information? If you want to make allegations, you must come out of Modi phobia. Only then will you understand. She further criticised LoP Rahul Gandhi, alleging that he lacked a vision and a concrete plan and repeatedly invoked the Prime Minister's name to portray him negatively. You have repeated Modi ji's name so much, morning and evening, that you have portrayed him as a villain. In fact, he is a hero. You should look for someone else to portray as a villain, she said. Meanwhile, Congress leaders defended LoP Rahul Gandhi's allegations and accused the BJP-led government of using agencies to target political opponents and undermine the federal structure. Congress MP Chamala Kiran Kumar Reddy said LoP Rahul Gandhi's allegations reflected the way the Central government was functioning and alleged that the BJP wanted to weaken regional parties and consolidate political power. Rahul ji's allegation on phone tapping is clearly showing us how the Modi government is acting. They want to destabilise the federal structure and regional parties. They want a 'One Nation, One Party, Double Engine Sarkar'. All these things are in their interest to remain in power for a long time, and they are using all the agencies, which we can clearly see, he said. Referring to Telangana's political history, Reddy alleged that former Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao had also resorted to phone tapping during his tenure to prevent the Congress from coming to power. As LoP Rahul Gandhi rightly said, they are using everything for the sake of staying in power, he added. Congress leader and AICC in-charge for Telangana, Sachin Sawant, also criticised the BJP, alleging that phone tapping, gathering Intelligence on individuals and blackmailing them had become part of its political modus operandi.
