BharatRashtra Samithi leaders KT Rama Rao and Harish Rao demanded an unconditional apology from Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy on July 30 for referring to engineering graduates as criminal waste. Taking to social media platform X, KT Rama Rao strongly questioned the Chief Minister's qualifications to comment on the capabilities of young engineers, asking whether he had ever written a competitive examination, attended a job interview, or worked in a professional environment during his lifetime. He further termed him a former real estate broker turned blackmailer who hustled his way into buying the Chief Minister post in a bankrupt Congress party.

Meanwhile, Harish Rao sharply criticised Revanth Reddy for his disparaging comments, describing the remark as deeply insulting to both students and the teaching fraternity. He emphasised that engineering graduates from Telangana are excelling across the globe, bringing immense pride and international recognition to the state, adding that insulting them ultimately disrespects every educator who trained them. Demanding that Revanth Reddy immediately withdraw his statement and tender an apology, Harish Rao also accused him of failing as Education Minister, pointing out that government schools across Telangana currently lack basic infrastructural resources.
