Speaking to mediapersons after having darshan of Lord Venkateswara in Tirumala on Thursday, he said, "The discrimination is more visible in the case of people's representatives from Telangana. It was not the case earlier, during either the TDP or YSRCP regime. However, the difference in treatment is quite evident now. All are equal before the God, and such discrimination is not acceptable."

The BRS leader urged Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu to take note of it, and set right the things. The TTD should continue the facilities and privileges provided to people's representatives from Telangana like in the past, he said.
