Working president of Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) and Minister for IT, Industries and Municipal Administration K.T. Rama Rao has accused State president of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Bandi Sanjay of supporting exploitation of Telangana in the matter of river water share by not expediting its finalisation.
In an open letter addressed to Mr. Sanjay, Mr. Rama Rao said on Friday that BJP had no moral right to take up padayatra in combined Mahabubnagar district for trying to take over the State’s rights over projects supplying water to the district. He alleged that the padayatra was another attempt by BJP to camouflage its conspiracies to deny irrigation through borewells by proposing fixing energy meters to farm connections.
Mr. Rama Rao sought to know why the State BJP was not questioning its Central leadership for denying national project status to Palamuru-Rangareddy project meant for combined Mahabubnagar district, when such a status was given to a project in the neighbouring Karnataka which would directly have first impact on Telangana downstream.
