HYDERABAD: After Make In India and Swachh Bharat, the BJP-led Central government has now undertaken a new initiative, ‘Becho India’ (sale of India), through disinvestment of profit-making Public Sector Undertakings (PSU), alleged TRS working president and MAUD Minister KT Rama Rao.
Speaking to the media here on Tuesday, KTR slammed Union Environment Minister Prakash Javadekar for compiling a “chargesheet” against the “MIM-TRS government”. “Javadekar should know that it is the TRS that’s ruling Telangana. The MIM is not a partner in the government,” the Minister said.
Listing out the development activities of the TRS government in the last six years, he asked Javadekar whether the party deserved the chargesheet because it constructed the Kaleshwaram project and provided `2,016 social security pensions monthly.
Highlighting the “injustice” meted out to Telangana by the BJP-led Central government, KTR posed 50 questions to the saffron party. “I am not expecting answers from BJP leaders to all my questions. They can’t respond. But they should try to answer at least some of the questions,” the TRS working president said. If the BJP was elected to the GHMC, they would sell Charminar, Golconda and even the GHMC, he alleged.
The Minister further said that the TRS and MIM would be in first and second places in the GHMC polls. “The fight is between the MIM and TRS. The TRS will get majority seats and its Corporator will become Mayor after December 4,” KTR averred.
During a road show later in the day, he urged citizens to defeat both the MIM and BJP for the development of Hyderabad. He alleged that BJP State president Bandi Sanjay has stooped to declaring surgical strike in the Old City. “Is Hyderabad not a part of India,” KTR asked Bandi. “I am asking the PM whether a surgical strike on a city of this country is part of Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas,” he said.
