The BJP raking up communal issues and spreading hatred during the polls, the Minister said. "Why talk of Rohingyas and others of overstaying after giving them voter cards and Aadhaar cards? he asked.

After taking Rs 2.72 lakh crore from the State, the Centre gave only Rs 1.40 lakh crore," KTR said. Note ban and GST in BJP rule have devastated the national economy, he charged.
