State BJP president Bandi Sanjay Kumar said that the TRS chief is replicating the West Bengal style of rule in the State, "foisting false cases against the BJP leaders and cadre in the name of violating lockdown norms." He asked the party cadre to prepare for fight to finish to free the State from KCR's clutches and end the TRS misgovernance in Telangana.
