Hyderabad: The BRS is set to sharpen its attack on the Congress government over unemployment and alleged unfulfilled job promises with its ‘Yuva Sangrama Sadassu’ at Saroornagar Stadium on Saturday. The youth meet, which is scheduled to commence at 10 am, will set the party’s platform for the next phase of its statewide campaign against the Revanth Reddy government.
BRS working president KT Rama Rao will address the meeting, which is expected to draw students, unemployed youth and party workers from across Telangana. The programme comes close on the heels of the party’s farmers’ convention in Warangal and is part of a series of issue-based mobilisation drives.
The choice of Saroornagar Stadium is significant. It was at the same venue that Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra unveiled the party’s Youth Declaration ahead of the 2023 Assembly elections. The BRS said it deliberately chose the venue to question the Congress over its unfulfilled commitments on jobs, recruitment and youth welfare.
In its Youth Declaration, the Congress promised to fill two lakh government jobs per annum, release a job calendar and provide an honorarium to unemployed youth, apart from creating entrepreneurial opportunities. However, the BRS, as well as government job aspirants, has accused the Congress of issuing notifications for fewer than 60,000 jobs and abandoning the remaining promises.
The BRS alleged that the ruling Congress had failed to honour its electoral promises to youth, students, farmers and other sections. The party accused the government of allowing public dissatisfaction to grow and said the convention would expose its record on employment and governance.
The party also alleged that the government had initially attempted to block the event by delaying permission. However, the Telangana High Court cleared the meeting after questioning the police over the delay in deciding the BRS application.
Senior BRS leaders said large numbers of students, job aspirants and youth were expected from Hyderabad and neighbouring constituencies. The youth convention is expected to focus on pending government recruitments, unemployment, fee reimbursement and other issues affecting students and young job seekers, as the Opposition seeks to make employment a central political issue in Telangana.
