BRS & Congress workers clash over KTR’s ‘brake dance’ remark | India News – Times of India

NEW DELHI: A scuffle broke out between women workers of the BRS and Congress parties on Saturday when KT Rama Rao, or KTR, Telangana’s ex-minister, reached the women’s commission office over his alleged derogatory remark on women.
The BRS leader, who also happens to be the son of ex-CM K Chandrashekhar Rao, or KCR, was stopped by the Mahila Congress workers, who started protesting in front of his vehicle.
Congresswomen were demanding that KTR should apologise to women for his alleged comments against women.

Telangana Women’s Commission had initiated a suo moto probe into KTR’s alleged derogatory remarks
Women’s Commission chairperson Sharada Nerella had said that the Commission took suo moto cognisance of a media post made by KTR.
However, last week, the BRS working president issued an unconditional apology over his ‘break dance’ remarks on women at a party meeting on Thursday.
Taking to X, KTR said, “I am sorry if our sisters were offended by the usual comments made in the party meeting yesterday. I never meant to offend my sisters”.
On Thursday, during the party meeting of the Station Ghanpur assembly constituency, KTR had said “let them (women) do break dance, or recording in RTC buses” while commenting on the Congress government’s free bus travel scheme for women.
