Telangana BJP has accused the BRS government of indulging in “large-scale corruption and diversion of funds” released by the Centre and the funding agencies for the construction of two-bedroom housing for the poor in the State, on Wednesday.
“The government had received lot of funding including ₹4,400 crore under the PMAY – Prime Minister Awas Yojana; yet the number of houses constructed for the poor has been about one lakh only whereas it had informed in 2015 that the scheme was to build six lakh houses. Where has the money gone?,” questioned senior leaders — former MLA Ch. Ramachandra Reddy, K. Venkateswarlu and others at a press conference.
“There has been total corruption and we are going to expose it across the State gathering details from every polling booth. Protests will be held outside district Collectorates on July 24 with the intended beneficiaries and those from eight districts of the Hyderabad region will hold demonstration at the Indira Park led by our chief G. Kishan Reddy,” they said.
