Telangana Congress president A. Revanth Reddy alleged that Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao has “deliberately ignored development in Akkampet”, the native village of Telangana ideologue Jayashankar.
In a letter to the Chief Minister, he said that the village was yet to be made a Gram Panchayat and there was no Mission Bhagiratha water there despite KCR claiming that water connection was in every village. The village lacks basic facilities and Dalits don’t even has houses, he said.
“Such neglect of the village only reflects your hatred for Prof. Jayashankar who fought for a separate Telangana throughout his life, motivating students, intellectuals and political parties,” he said in the letter. “The neglect is deliberate and shows how KCR wants to suppress the very image of the late professor.”
