Some section of people criticized Rajaiah for making such comments and also burnt his effigy at Raghunathpally village in Jangaon district. Now, Rajaiah apologised for his comments on KCR and for hurting the sentiments of women.

Speaking at an event organized for the distribution of Bathukamma sarees at Lingala Ghanpur Mandal, Rajaiah said that, "The chief minister of the state is working hard for the welfare of the people and is providing what all is needed to the pregnant women and their newborns, just as their husbands would do. The KCR Kit consists of a saree, a small mattress for babies, diapers, soap, talcum powder, oil, and a mosquito net. Women are very happy with the scheme. Not even their own husbands, parents, or in-laws give them so many facilities." He further stated that KCR had taken up the role of a husband.
