No Reorganisation Of District Under Consideration, Says Revanth

“There is a malicious campaign being run for temporary political gain claiming that Bhupalpally district will be scrapped. But it is not true, Bhupalpally will not vanish. This region, which gave the world a visionary like P.V. Narasimha Rao and a revolutionary like Prof. Jayashankar, holds a special place in the history of Telangana,” the Chief Minister during an election campaign meeting.

“If at all the government has to rationalise districts, it will be done after thorough consultation with all stakeholders and a detailed debate in the Assembly,” he said. Revanth Reddy recalled that it was N.T. Rama Rao who first laid the foundation for coal mining by making Bhupalpally a mandal headquarters.

Hailing the coal miners of Singareni Collieries Company Limited (SCCL) as role models for the nation, the Chief Minister promised to abolish the controversial Medical Unfit Board, which has been a long-standing grievance for coal miners. He assured that the Congress government was committed to protecting hereditary jobs and resolving the issues of 217 dismissed workers. “The government belongs to the Singareni workers. It will not take a single step that harms their interests,” he added.

Earlier, the Chief Minister accompanied by ministers Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy, Duddilla Sridhar Babu and Konda Surekha and MLA Gandra Satyanarayana reopened renovated historic Kotancha Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy Temple in Ghanpur mandal of Jayashankar Bhupalpally district and offered special prayers.

Launching a scathing attack on the family of BRS chief and former chief minister K. Chandrashekar Rao, Revanth Reddy contrasted the Congress’s welfare legacy with the previous administration’s failures. During the Y.S.Rajasekhar Reddy government, 25 lakh Indiramma houses were built. Chandrashekar Rao promised double-bedroom houses but ended up building a 1,000-acre farmhouse in Erravelli for himself and 100-acre estates in Janwada for his family, he alleged.

He announced that the Congress government was sanctioning 3,500 Indiramma houses per constituency with a total cost of `22,500 crore for 4.5 lakh houses in the first phase, with a second phase to be cleared in the upcoming Budget.

In a direct challenge to the Opposition, the Chief Minister labelled the BRS as the ‘Blackmail Rajakiya Samithi,’ accusing the party of using phone tapping to extort hundreds of crores from businessmen. He questioned how `1,500 crore ended up in the BRS accounts.

Questioning the Centre, Revanth Reddy asked: “When the Gandhi family can be harassed by the ED and CBI, why is there no action on the Kaleshwaram scam or the Formula-E race case”, and added that the BRS and the BJP are two sides of the same coin like Bomma-Borusu.

Highlighting his government’s commitment to the region, the Chief Minister noted that `6,116 crore has been sanctioned for municipalities in the erstwhile Warangal district, including `92 crores specifically for Bhupalpally. He announced a `4,000-crore plan to develop the Godavari Basin from Basara to Bhadrachalam as a premier tourism circuit for the 2027 Godavari Pushakaralu.

Revanth Reddy also promised people to provide water from Jampanna Vagu to Ramappa Lake and ensure that the tradition of providing Indiramma saris to women would continue every year as a brotherly gift.
