KTR addresses gathering at Huzurnagar, ridicules Kishan Reddy statements on finance

He added, “By way of taxes, in the last eight years, Telangana has paid ₹3.68 lakh crore, while what we got back from the Centre was only ₹1.68 lakh crore. Now, let Kishan Reddy say who is enjoying time at whose expense.”

Where’s the money gone?

KTR stated that the BJP was utilising taxes that the Telangana state had paid to the Centre to fund development works in BJP-ruled states.

He challenged Reddy to prove him wrong, and stated that if he did, he would resign as minister.

KTR said that the loans that the state had raised were used on development works, but asked whether the BJP had done even a single useful work for the state during the last eight years.

“The BJP government at the Centre raised ₹100 lakh crore, but I do not see any useful work being done with these funds,” he said.

He added that the BRS government was fulfilling the promises it had made to take Telangana forward on the road to development.

For people and nation 

Asserting that the BRS government was for farmers, he said that, unlike any other state, several farmer-centric welfare schemes have been implemented.

KTR said that the purpose of transforming the TRS to the BRS was to provide a direction to the nation. The name might have changed, but the quest for development, which is at its core, continues even now, he said.

The minister later grounded development works taken up at a cost of ₹40 crore at Chandur in the Munugode Assembly segment.
