While addressing a protest organized by the state Congress outside the ED office regarding the chargesheet against Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi, Vikramarka stated that the BJP is concerned about the call made during the recent AICC plenary in Ahmedabad for a caste survey, akin to the one carried out in Telangana, to be implemented nationwide.
He alleged that the BJP opposes the equitable distribution of the nation’s resources post-caste survey. “A conspiracy is underway in the country to stall a caste census. The ED cases are a component of that conspiracy,” he asserted.

The cases against Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi signify an effort to intimidate, suggesting that even the Gandhi-Nehru family, which has produced prime ministers for the nation, is not immune to punitive measures, he stated.
Reaffirming that the Congress, the Nehru-Gandhi family, and the National Herald have played a vital role in the country’s independence, Vikramarka emphasized that the Congress would not be “intimidated” by such cases.
AICC in-charge of party affairs in Telangana Meenakshi Natarajan, state Congress president B Mahesh Kumar Goud, several state ministers, along with numerous Congress leaders and activists, were present at the protest.
