Talasani Slams Congress Over No Houses In Hyderabad
- Talasani Srinivas Yadav questions housing progress in city
- Double bedroom houses and BRS government claims highlighted
Hyderabad, March 25: BRS MLA Talasani Srinivas Yadav criticised the Congress government in the Assembly on Wednesday. He said the government has not built a single house in Hyderabad even after 28 months in power. He raised the issue during the ongoing Assembly session.
However, Talasani Srinivas Yadav said the previous BRS government fulfilled the dream of housing for the poor. He stated that the double bedroom house programme played a key role in this effort. He credited the KCR government for implementing the scheme across the city.
Meanwhile, he shared figures related to the housing programme. He said 2.31 lakh houses were sanctioned. He added that 1.62 lakh houses were constructed. He also said 65 thousand houses were allocated to beneficiaries through a transparent lottery system in the twin cities.
Further, Talasani Srinivas Yadav noted that the first double bedroom housing project began in IDH Colony in Sanath Nagar. He said this marked the start of a major welfare initiative. He also recalled that the then Governor Narasimhan had visited the houses and appreciated them.
At the same time, he demanded that the double bedroom houses built in slum areas be given to deserving poor families. He stressed that these families have been living locally for the past 70 years. Therefore, he urged the government to ensure fair distribution.
Later, he challenged critics of the housing programme. He said those questioning the construction should visit the sites with him. He added that they could see how well the houses were built during the BRS regime.
The remarks came amid ongoing political exchanges in the Assembly. The issue of housing for the poor continues to remain a key point of debate between the ruling party and the opposition.
