A Congress government in the State would be formed soon, and it would review all decisions taken by the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) government, particularly the ones taken in the past few months, said Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president A. Revanth Reddy.
Speaking at a party meeting here on Monday Mr.Reddy alleged that Chief Minister K.Chandrasekhar Rao had resorted to huge corruption in governance and his family members and relatives had encroached on large extent of lands around Hyderabad. He stated that the then Congress government at the Centre had given statehood to Telangana to ensure that the aspirations of the region were realised and not to allow the successive government to “sell” the Outer Ring Road project.
The Congress government in the past had given (assigned) lands to the poor across the State, but the BRS government had snatched such lands in the name of development and was doing real estate business. If the lands resumed were fetching ₹100 crore per acre, the poor assignees from whom they were taken back should get at least ₹1 crore per acre, he suggested. The work of government lands abutting the ORR was about ₹65,000 crore, he disclosed.
