Demolition works will go on: Telangana IT Minister KTR
Illegal structures will be pulled down wherever it exists said the minister
Hyderabad: The Telangana state government will continue demolition of illegal buildings in Hyderabad said IT and panchayat raj minister K.T. Rama Rao, adding that the government would not discriminate between new city or old city when it comes to demolition of illegal structures.
“There will be no lenient view whether Old City or new. Illegal structures will be pulled down wherever it exists,” he said while speaking on the sidelines of a programme held at ISB.
To a question on why the government did not initiate such action in the Old City, Mr Rama Rao said action would be taken wherever such illegal structures exist.
Meanwhile, the war of words continued between the TD and TRS leaders. Mr Rama Rao hit back at Telugu Desam Kodangal MLA, Mr A. Revanth Reddy, on his allegations against the TRS government. He said the government was committed to developing a gaming city no matter what.
“Contrary to belief, gaming city will provide employment to 50,000 people and not 15,000 as envisaged earlier. We will complete the project at all cost. Mr Revanth Reddy should have no doubt about it nor live with any illusion. We want to make Telangana state the number one in IT sector in the next five years,” he said.
“The project was approved by the Kiran Kumar Reddy government and the pending file was cleared without changes. Mr Revanth Reddy is using RTI information to blackmail,” he said, adding that Mr Revanth Reddy was focusing on industries, land and bigwigs when he should be concentrating on the issues of his constituency.
