K Taraka Rama Rao the Minister for IT and Industries countered Union Minister for Tourism Kishan Reddy’s comments on the development of Telangana.
KTR said that it was KCR and the Telangana government that is spending for the development and that the Union Government has done nothing he stated.
He said that the development does not mean giving lifts and kurkure packets.
KTR reminded of things like BJP leaders starting a lift at Secunderabad railway station and distributing Kurkure packets during the lockdown time. KTR also said that Kishan Reddy did not do anything for Telangana as Union Minister or for his own constituency.
Minister KTR criticized the union Tourism Minister as not having the moral right to speak about the state’s development. He said that development is going on everywhere in Hyderabad and Kishan Reddy is making misleading statements to the people.
The latest is that the state Government is going for the Metro line from Mindspace to Shamsahbad airport on its own and is not seeking the funds from the centre.
KTR demanded that the BJP release the details of the funds given by the central government for development works in Hyderabad. He opined that the Union Minister is working like the Minister for Secunderabad.
