New Delhi: The Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) Working President K T Rama Rao on Tuesday said that TRS (former name of BRS party) has witnessed achievements and failures in the last 24 years since it was founded.
"In the last 24 years since TRS was founded, we have seen it all. Stellar achievements, successes, and also many setbacks. The greatest glory: formation of Telangana state will remain our biggest achievement," said K T Rama Rao.
He further hailed TRS for emerging victorious in two consecutive state assembly elections.
"Being a regional party won two consecutive state elections with a good majority 63/119 - 2014 88/119 - 2018," wrote K T Rama Rao on social media platform X.
"Currently, the principal opposition with 1/3rd seats 39/119 - 2023. Today's electoral setback is certainly very disappointing. But we will continue to toil and will rise from the ashes again like a Phoenix," he added further.
Earlier on Sunday, K T Rama Rao said that the party's victory in the Mahabubnagar MLC by-elections signals a crucial turning point in the evolving political landscape of Telangana. He further said this victory in the local bodies' legislative council seat within the Chief Minister's home districts serves as a testament to the shifting political winds in the state.
