Etala: BRS spreading lies in Assembly

HYDERABAD: BJP legislator Etala Rajendar accused the state of exaggerating claims and spreading lies regarding its progress in Governor Tamilisai Soundarajan's speech to the Legislature on Friday.

When it boasts of improved power sustainability in the state, why has it failed to cater to the needs of the agriculture sector and why are aggrieved famers staging protests against the power cuts, he wondered, while speaking to reporters.

Many farmers did not get any financial aid under Rythu Bandhu scheme because of which several of them  were forced to sell their agricultural lands, he said.

Farmers are also facing difficulties caused by errors in Dharani portal. Unfortunately none of these have been mentioned in the Governor's speech, Rajendar said. Except in Siddipet and Gajwel, 2BHK houses have not been constructed in the state, he said.

Legislator M. Raghunandan Rao was also present.
