The padyatra, which was stopped after an alleged attack on her convoy last year will resume today from Narsampet's Narsampet, said the YSR leader.

She undertook the padyatra with a view to strengthening her organisation ahead of the Assembly elections slated later this year.

Speaking to ANI the YSRTP chief dared KCR to walk with her and said that she would "retire from politics" if his claim of Telangana being a "golden state" is proved true.

"Today I challenge Telangana CM KCR to walk with me in Padyatra and we presented a shoe box to him. If in fact, this is the golden state as KCR states, there are no problems to the people of Telangana, if my people are not reeling under poverty as he says, then I will apologise to KCR and retire from politics. But if this is not true, KCR has to resign and apologise to people of the state and make a Dalit a Chief Minister like he promised," she said.

Asked about the state Budget which will be presented tomorrow in the Assembly, Sharmila said that she has no hopes for the budget as the Chief Minister "anyway is not going to stick to it".

"We have seen KCR has been Chief Minister for eight-and-a-half years now. Seeing his pattern of working, and how he allocates the budget, there is no sense in the budget that the KCR government presents. I don't see any hope because KCR anyway is not going to stick to it,"she said.

Sharmila further said that KCR being removed as the Chief Minister is the "only hope" for Telangana.

"The only hope for Telangana is that KCR should go home and should not be the Chief Minister any more. I'm looking forward to the Assembly elections for a change of government in the state," she said.

Meanwhile, Sharmila also stated that the Union Budget presented in Lok Sabha by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman did not allocate much to Telangana.

"Not much has been allocated to Telangana. There were many promises made by the government during the separation when Telangana was formed. Till today, there is no assurance that all of the promises will be kept. We hoped for something for us, but we did not see anything on the promises," she said.
