Rajdeep Sardesai, a well-known national journalist, made a statement in support of KCR that ended up backfiring and causing controversy for the BRS party.
According to Rajdeep, KCR told his fellow leaders that he would fund the campaigns of all opposition parties in the 2024 elections if he was made the chairman of the anti-Modi group.
This statement is damaging because KCR's daughter Kavitha is already embroiled in a liquor scam, and there have been rumors about BRS MLAs engaging in land grabbing in and around Hyderabad since 2014.
Rajdeep's statement gives the impression that KCR and his associates have accumulated a lot of wealth and are willing to use it to support opposition parties.
Rajdeep generally reflects his anti-Modi stance, which technically makes him pro-BRS. However, he made the statement to showcase KCR's financial muscle to the nation, but ended up causing political harm to the pink brigade.
