The Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) celebrated International Women’s Day at Telangana Bhavan on Sunday, with party women leaders cutting a cake and felicitating women achievers from various fields. They credited the previous K Chandrashekhar Rao government for introducing welfare schemes and accused the present Congress regime of failing to fulfil promises made to women.
Speaking on the occasion, BRSLP
deputy leader P Sabita Indra Reddy said women continue to face discrimination despite progress in many fields. She announced that the party would soon release a booklet on issues faced by women and possible solutions. She said schemes such as Kalyana Lakshmi, KCR Kits and Mission Bhagiratha had brought major changes in the lives of women and stated that many women wanted Chandrashekhar Rao to return as Chief Minister.
