Harish Rao Reacts To The Medigadda Barrage Collapse
Hyderabad, Oct 27 (Maxim News): The reaction to the collapse of Medigadda Lekshmi Barrage from the ruling KCR government has come now. Finance Minister T. Harish Rao assured the public that the agency responsible for the project would address the issue within two months.
Addressing the press conference at Telangana Bhavan, the Minister said that in a major project, such as this, minor issues could arise, similar to the ones in a newly constructed house.
Harish Rao accused the Congress party of being anti-farmer and attempting to halt the Rythu Bandhu scheme. he emphasized that it has been in continuous operation for six years, with 11 installments already disbursed. He credited Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao for pioneering the flagship scheme, which was later emulated by the Centre through the PM Kisan scheme.
Harish Rao further said that Congress had understood that farmers will not vote for them whatever they do. there are more than 69 lakh farmers getting Rythu Bandhu and the Congress party is creating a conspiracy. Every rainy season and Rabi season. Rythu Bandhu is given to the farmers. “Is this what the party should do? I warn Congress leaders. Your deposits will be gone. Even though we did not mention the schemes in the manifesto the government introduced Rythu Bandhu, Kalyanalakshmi. How can the Congress party give a letter to EC, he said.
The BRS leader recalled that Congress had promised nine-hour power before the 2009 elections but they failed to give even for three hours. The Karnataka farmers are worrying today. they are saying, the BJP used to give eight hours but they believed Congress and voted for them, but they are not giving power even for three hours said Harish Rao.
The Congress leaders know that the farmers will not vote for them hence they have given a complaint to the Election Commission. He also alleged that former TPCC Chief N. Uttam Kumar Reddy had termed the Rythu Bandhu as a wasteful expenditure. Rao demanded that the Congress should apologize to the farmers in Telangana (Maxim News)
