Communist Party of India (CPI) State secretary K. Ramakrishna has criticised the Andhra Pradesh government for not focussing on development by investing in creation of infrastructure and improving income generation on the lines of the Telangana government after formation of the new State.
On the 10th Formation Day of Telangana, it was pertinent to point out that as on June 2, 2014, the revenues of Andhra Pradesh and Telagnana were ₹65,619 crore and ₹51,042 crore respectively. The revenues of Andhra Pradesh were higher by ₹14,603 crore, Mr. Ramakrishna said while addressing the media on Friday.
But, by the end of the 2022-23 fiscal, Andhra Pradesh’s revenue was ₹1.58 lakh core against Telangana’s ₹1.59 lakh crore, he said.
