New Delhi: K Kavitha on Saturday paid floral tributes to those killed during the 1969 Telangana statehood movement at the Amarveerula Stupam in Hyderabad’s Gun Park ahead of the launch of her new political party.Former’s daughter Kavita, about seven months after leaving Bharat Rashtra Samiti Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao is set to unveil a new regional political organisation, which he described as reflecting Telangana’s “aspirations and unfinished agenda”.Speaking to ANI on Friday, Kavita said that instead of leaving voluntarily, she and her supporters have been expelled from the BRS.“The BRS party was formed to fulfill the regional aspiration of Telangana, but they changed their name, work and soul of the party, as a result of which they lost their bond with the people. When a party deviates from its core issue, it cannot survive. We need a regional party to address the incomplete agenda and aspirations of Telangana, which will be our party.”She addressed her strained relations with the party led by her father, saying: “The BRS party, of which my father is the president, has expelled us. We have not left them, neither the family nor the party. We have been expelled. I don’t want to go into that. But I am the daughter of Telangana. I have the blood of Telangana in me, its grit. We are very stubborn, very committed towards our goal. We have spent 20 years of our lives in the Telangana movement. Have spent in. Telangana has to be developed, its aspirations have to be fulfilled, whether our old party is there or not, whether our family is with us or not, I believe that the people of Telangana are my family. The fragrance of Telangana soil will take us forward.”Kavita’s departure from BRS followed months of internal conflict. He was suspended from the party in September 2025 for alleged anti-party activities after publicly criticizing senior leaders T Harish Rao and J Santosh Rao.Following the suspension, he accused Harish Rao and Santosh Rao of conniving with Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy of “planning to destroy our family and party”. Later he resigned from the post of MLC.Kavitha formally quit BRS in January 2026 and later founded Telangana Jagrithi, which has now become the platform for her comeback to frontline politics.
