BRS MLAs go in ‘exam mode’ as party supremo KCR seeks to ‘test’ them

Ruling party MLAs in Telangana have suddenly found themselves in ‘exam mode’ with Bharat Rashtra Samithi president and Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao deciding to test them on their knowledge and contribution of the government programmes, beneficiaries, developmental works done in the last nine years in their respective constituencies.

Chief Minister K Chandrasekar Rao found the MLAs short of information on their constituencies during a recent party meeting. When he asked an MLA to explain how the KG to PG programme has helped the constituency transform all that the MLA could do was murmur a few things than confidently reveal the details. Similar was the case with questions on irrigation facilities.

Disappointed, and finding the MLAs falling short of his expectations, the party president has apparently asked the MLAs to submit a comprehensive report on various developmental activities in their constituencies including the number of beneficiaries and the contribution of the MLAs in their constituencies.
