"We have all decided. Definitely, none of us will attend his (PM Modi) visit tomorrow. Because, his move to give Rs 520 crore, as if giving alms, is an insult to Telangana society. Definitely, we will boycott. We will not attend his programme," he said.

Asked about Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's attack on BRS at a recent public meeting at Khammam in Telangana, he asked in what capacity Rahul Gandhi is making policy announcements.

"Rahul Gandhi comes here and makes policy statements. In what capacity, he is making the statements? Is he the president of Congress party? Is he the president of Congress in Telangana? Is he even a Member of Parliament," he said.

Mr Gandhi had recently dubbed the BRS the "B Team of BJP".

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will lay the foundation stone for several crucial infrastructure development projects worth around Rs 6,100 crore in Warangal on Saturday.

PM Modi would visit the famous Bhadrakali temple in the district before attending the events and would also address a public meeting.

As part of the programme, the Prime Minister will also lay the foundation stone of the railway wagon manufacturing unit, Kazipet to be developed at a cost of over Rs 500 crore.

The modern manufacturing unit will have enhanced wagon manufacturing capacity. It will help in local employment generation and development of ancillary units in nearby areas, an official release had earlier said.
