KCR to address 41 rallies in 17 days; BJP raises questions over his health

A tentative schedule released by the chief minister’s office revealed that he would be holding back-toback rallies every day, sometimes addressing three rallies a day, barring the last few days of Navratri and Dussehra.

Mr Rao, who was last seen on the day of Ganesh Puja when his office posted photographs of the chief minister before the Ganesh idol at Pragathi Bhavan, had first suffered from viral infection followed by a secondary infection. In his absence, his son and BRS working president KT Rama Rao and nephew and finance minister T Harish Rao looked after the affairs of the party and the government.
