Working president of Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) K.T. Rama Rao has made a startling revelation that Deputy Chief Minister of Karnataka D.K. Shivakumar has addressed a letter to the Chairman of Foxconn Technology Group, which is setting up its unit at Kongara Kalan on the outskirts of Hyderabad, in September with a proposal to consider relocation of the unit to Bengaluru.
Speaking at a meeting with Telangana State Advocates body here on Saturday, he made a mention of Mr. Shivakumar’s letter to the Foxconn citing it as an example of what would be in store for Telangana in case Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao was not supported. The governance of Telangana would take place from Delhi via Bengaluru in the event of people supporting Congress in the State.
The Foxconn management had agreed to establish its unit due to four years of persistent efforts by the Telangana government and the company was allotted 200 acres of land at Kongara Kalana and the construction of the facility was in progress. The first production from the facility would come into the market in May next and the unit was expected to generate direct and indirect employment opportunities to thousands of techies and others.
