HYDERABAD: Union tourism minister G Kishan Reddy wrote a letter to Telangana CM K Chandrasekhar Rao stating several rail projects were getting delayed in Telangana due to ‘lack of cooperation from the state government’ as he termed it.
Kishan Reddy said there was laxity on the part of the state government even pertaining to the MMTS phase-2 project. He explained the state had contributed only 129 cr when its share was 760 cr. Though the railway board had agreed to extend the MMTS connecting under phase-2 to Yadadri at the request of the state government, the project could not take off as it was yet to contribute its share of two-third cost, the minister, who represents Secunderabad in the Lok Sabha, said.
