TDP seeks clarity on pending irrigation projects
Hyderabad, June 13 (INN): TDP Telangana unit president L Ramana on Saturday asked Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao to issue a detailed statement on the status of pending irrigation projects in Telangana State.
Addressing a press conference at NTR Trust Bhavan here, Ramana said that the TDP was not against the irrigation projects in the State. However, he said that instead of pursuing the pending irrigation projects, the TRS Government was merely announcing new projects and laying foundation stones. He alleged that by announcing new projects, KCR was receiving kickbacks from the contractors. He said thousands of crores have already been spent on Pranahita Chevella project, launched by the then YSR Government, although real project works are yet to be executed. Similarly, he said
Ramana alleged that KCR was not serious on the completion of any project and has been receiving kickbacks through new irrigation projects, Mission Kakatiya and Water Grid works.
He also accused KCR of misusing his powers and the Anti-Corruption Bureau for personal and political gains.
