Bhubaneswar: Former Chief Minister of Odisha Giridhar Gamang joined Bharat Rasthra Samithi (BRS) in the presence of Telangana Chief Minister KCR, in a program organized at Telangana Bhawan on Friday evening.
CM KCR had invited Giridhar Gamang and many other leaders to join the party. Along with Gamang, his son Sishir Gamang, former Odisha minister Jayaram Pangi, Ramachandra Hansda, Burndaban Majhi, Nabin Nanda, and Mayadhar Jena were among those who joined BRS today.
Speaking on this occasion, CM KCR revealed that Giridhar Gamang has fought many battles on farmers’ issues and Gamang is one of the active leaders of the country.
“India has more resources than any other country in the world. America, China and developed countries have more resources. But, the youth of the country are eager to go to America. India is celebrating 75 years of independence. Farmers in India still do not get irrigation water and electricity.”
CM KCR said that the conditions of farmers and workers have not changed even if the governments have changed. “Real democracy is when people win elections. BRS will bring change so that people can win elections. India needs a transformation,” he added.
