Chief Minister Revanth Reddy attended the Yuva Vikasam programme held at Peddapalli on Wednesday, where he handed over appointment letters to 8,084 selected candidates who had appeared for the Group-4 exams.
Speaking at the event, he urged KCR to provide constructive suggestions from his administrative experience and questioned why KCR, KTR, Harish Rao and Santosh Kumar were not participating in the caste census.
“Are you anti-BC? Why not give BCs their due share? BC associations should consider socially boycotting those who oppose the caste census. When we were in the opposition, we participated in the Samagra Kutumba Survey” he said.
Revanth expressed gratitude to Congress leader Sonia Gandhi, crediting her for keeping her promise of granting Telangana statehood, which fulfilled the aspirations of its people.
“We will make 1 crore women crorepatis. In the next election we will get one crore votes from women and whatever men votes we have will be an add-on. This time we got 95 lakh votes,” he said.
Revanth emphasised that the state was formed with the goal of creating jobs and driving development in the region. He accused former Chief Minister KCR of suppressing Congress
leaders who fought for farmers’ rights, contrasting it with the government’s completion of projects worth Rs 1,035 crore.
The Chief Minister highlighted his government’s commitment to agricultural development, noting the historic achievement of encouraging paddy cultivation and providing a bonus alongside remunerative prices. “Peddapalli district leads Telangana with paddy cultivation on 2 lakh acres, and bonuses have already been deposited in 95 per cent of farmers’ accounts,” he said.
Addressing opposition criticism, Revanth challenged Union Ministers Kishan Reddy and Bandi Sanjay to compare employment figures, asking if Prime Minister Modi had ever provided 55,000 jobs in Gujarat within a year of his rule.
The Chief Minister also slammed the Kaleshwaram Project, alleging massive corruption under KCR’s rule.
“Despite Kaleshwaram’s collapse, Telangana produced 1.5 crore tons of paddy without using a drop of water from it,” he said.
Revanth defended his government’s achievements, including waiving farm loans worth Rs 21,000 crore and reviving self-help groups to empower women economically.
Revanth announced plans to strengthen universities and establish engineering and law colleges under Satavahana University. He also said the Congress Government increased hostel diet and cosmetic charges after a decade of stagnation under BRS rule.
