Chief Minister Revanth Reddy said that former Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao has not done anything except take loans and commit misdeeds in the last 10 years.
The CM said that KCR showed wrong data regarding the debts he had run up. The debts contracted by KCR and his misdeeds will be exposed in the CAG report tabled in the Assembly, the CM added.
“If KCR had completed all irrigation projects, there would have been no problem with Andhra Pradesh now. Who ate the prawn soup prepared by Roja? If KCR had completed the projects, these headaches would not have happened. Who called former AP Chief Minister Jagan to Pragathi Bhavan, offered him food and gave permission to the Rayalaseema Lift Irrigation Scheme,” the CM said.
Responding to another question, the CM said, “I am the CM. KCR is a former CM and what is his stature? I defeated KCR and made him a zero in the Parliament elections. KCR and KTR have fat but nothing. Who is KTR to talk about my stature? KTR is a wasted fellow. Is being caught in a drug party stature? KCR does not have the stature to enter the assembly as KTR said.”
Speaking during a chit-chat with journalists at the CLP office on Monday, the CM said, “Criminals do not fear cases. If they have fear, they will not engage in crime. That is why KTR is saying that he is not afraid of cases. It is a waste of time speaking about KTR.”
Responding to another question, the CM said that
Union Minister Kishan Reddy has been stating that he brought Metro Rail. However, Kishan should tell where is his Metro? Former Union Minister, the late S. Jaipal Reddy, brought the Metro train to the state, he said.
Criticising Kishan for not attending the all-party meeting, Revanth said that Kishan did not attend the all-party meeting as he was afraid of KCR. The CM said they are asking Kishan to bring funds as Kishan has been saying that he brought the Metro.
“Is it not Eatala Rajender who is blocking land acquisition for National Highways? Kishan should discuss with us as they are saying that land acquisition is the responsibility of the state government. Why did Kishan not attend the review meetings of his fellow Ministers? Why did he not attend Union Urban Development Minister Manohar Lala Khattar’s review meeting? Why is the Centre not sanctioning projects to Telangana? KTR and Kishan Reddy are roaming together,” the CM said.
“We are thinking of spreading the development of Hyderabad to other regions. However, the BRS thinks that Central funds should not be provided to Telangana. Kishan should come for a debate on Central funds. I and Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka will attend the debate. We will felicitate Kishan if he proves that the Centre gave more funds to Telangana,” the CM said.
The CM said that he would go to New Delhi 99 times for the funds. If the need arises I will stage a dharna in New Delhi for funds, the CM said.
He said that there are limited allocations for projects. So we are asking the Centre for funds. We are asking for funds as per Prime Minister Modi’s assurance, the CM added.
