As soon as Chief Minister Reddy entered the hall, he personally went to KCR, shook his hand, and enquired about his well-being. Following this, several ministers and MLAs, including Uttam Kumar Reddy, Sridhar Babu, Komatireddy Venkat Reddy, Seethakka, Vakiti Srihari and Adluri Lakshman Kumar also met KCR . Newly elected MLA Naveen Yadav also met KCR and sought his blessings.<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><strong>Watch The Video Here<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"twtiframe\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-media-max-width=\"560\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">MOST VIRAL FROM THE ASSEMBLYHere is the most viral moment from the ongoing Telangana Assembly.<\/p>\n<p>Former CM, BRS supremo KCR gets up from his seat and greets CM Revanth Reddy. The CM extended a handshake.<\/p>\n<p>I am truly amazed by the patience and discipline of KCR. Just last week,\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/t6NwIgwJ47\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/t6NwIgwJ47<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Revathi (@revathitweets) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/revathitweets\/status\/2005529401941983490?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow\">December 29, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">The bonhomie came amid a bitter war of words between the Chief Minister and the Leader of the Opposition over irrigation projects and river water sharing. The main opposition, BRS, has accused Revanth Reddy of using derogatory language against KCR and even wishing for his death. While announcing his plans to launch a mass movement over the Palamuru-Rangareddy lift irrigation project on December 21, KCR remarked they would \u201cpeel off the skin of the Congress government for betraying people,&#8221; <em>India Today<\/em> reported.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">Reacting strongly, CM Revanth Reddy warned KCR that his sarpanches would beat him up and hang him from a tree, vowing never to allow KCR or his family to return to power. \u201cKCR filed cases against me, had me jailed and harassed me when he was in power. God punished him; he fell and injured himself the very day I was sworn in. I don\u2019t even need to jail him; he has imprisoned himself in his farmhouse, surrounded by my police,&#8221; the CM said at a public meeting in Narayanpet on December 24.<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">Thereafter, KCR\u2019s son and BRS Working President KT Rama Rao cautioned the CM that restraint should not be mistaken for weakness. \u201cEvery day they make baseless statements-one day he talks about KCR\u2019s injury and prays for his death, another day they say he is unfit. Watching this language, anyone would feel angry. If not for democracy, I would have reacted differently. But out of respect for the constitutional chair, I restrain myself, he said.<\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">He added, \u201cI, too, know how to respond strongly. I grew up in Hyderabad, and I can speak forcefully in Telugu, Hindi, Urdu, and English. But I choose restraint out of respect for the office, not out of fear.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-ee90caf6118df965 jsx-1555482678 atbtlink fp\"><span>First Published:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"rs\">\n<p>December 29, 2025, 15:08 IST<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-ee90caf6118df965 jsx-1555482678 brdcrmb\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/\">News<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/politics\/\">politics<\/a>  <span class=\"brdout\"> Amid War Of Words, Rare Bonhomie In Telangana Assembly As Revanth Reddy Greets KCR<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"coral-wrap\" class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f \">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coral-cont\">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coltoptxt\">Disclaimer: Comments reflect users\u2019 views, not News18\u2019s.
