KCR urges people to question BJP candidates on Centre\'s failed promises

KCR alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is privatising all the sectors including railways, airports

ADILABAD: Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao on Friday appealed to the people of Telangana to question the BJP contesting candidates over the Central government led by BJP not sanctioning a single medical college out of a total of 157, Navodaya college to the Telangana and for attempting to fix the meters to the agriculture pump sets. He said the BJP has no moral right to ask for the votes doing all these injustices to the Telangana.

KCR alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is privatising all the sectors including railways, airports and others and even Modi mounted pressure on BRS government to fix the meters to agriculture pump sets and added that he opposed fixing meters to protect the interests of the farmers.

KCR was addressing the Praja Ashirvada Sabha in Bhainsa as part of election campaigning in Nirmal district.

He said BRS promote peace and communal harmony among the different religious communities and a peaceful situation prevailed in the last 10 years ruling in the state and the same prevailed in Bhainsa where Muslims and Hindus are living co-existing. KCR strongly condemned the hatred and divisive politics being played by some political parties.

‘There was not a single curfew and lathi charge in Bhainsa but few political parties project the Bhainsa different outside’, said KCR and added the Muslims and Hindus are peacefully living in harmony in Nirmal, Mudhole, Bhainsa and Adilabad and Hyderabad in the BRS rule. KCR said as long as he is alive, the Telangana will remain a secular state.

KCR said the Central government cut a total of Rs 25,000 crores in funds to the Telangana since BRS government opposed fixing the meters by the BJP-led government.

KCR also asked the Congress leaders why they did not focus on desilting in the tanks and construction of check dams on the stream and rivulets to improve the groundwater table in 50 years of its rule while recalling that those were days when people used to dig up 700 feet for borewells to fetch water.

He ridiculed the Congress rule stating that farmers used to place their chappals in queues waiting for their turn for fertilizers and the same used to sell even in the police stations to control the farmers.

KCR criticized the Congress party and AICC former president Rahul Gandhi and CLP Bhatti Vikramarka for opposing the Dharani portal and reeled out the benefits of the Dharani portal.

KCR compared the Telangana development with the bordering Maharashtra and added that some farmers are doing agriculture on the lands they have purchased in bordering areas of Telangana and getting all the benefits offered by the BRS government. KCR began his speech by praising the Basar temple and place considering it as most sacred.

Minister Allola Indrakaran Reddy, BRS contesting candidate Vittal Reddy, MP Damodhar Rao, MLC Madhusudhana Chary, Padakanti Ramadevi who recently joined the BRS from BJP, former MP Godam Ganesh, former MLC Puranam Satish, KCR’s friend Vilas Gadewar of Bhainsa town were present.
