Priyanka Gandhi alleged that the "BJP and BRS joined hands with the common cause of staying in power at the Centre and the state. The BJP is the richest party in the country while BRS has the fattest purse here in Telangana. However, the money they have actually belongs to the common man. These funds should have been used to write off the loans of farmers and pay pensions to government employees. In our governments, people's money goes back to them."
