Congress MP Rahul Gandhi said that while his party has allocated lakhs of acres of land to Dalits, Tribals and Backward Classes, “Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao had looted ₹1 lakh crore from the State in the name of Kaleshwaram project and by selling away precious land given to the downtrodden.”
“This is the model of KCR governance that has pushed Telangana into a huge debt trap while the CM’s family prospered beyond imagination,” he charged while addressing meetings at Kalwakurthy, Jadcherla and Shadnagar on Wednesday, as part of the Vijayabheri Sabhas of the Congress. He said that to repay this debt, every family in Telangana would need to contribute ₹31,500 annually until 2040.
Referring to Mr. Revanth Reddy’s slogan “Bye Bye KCR”, Mr. Gandhi said that the question remains about the money KCR looted from the public. “KCR will be removed from the CM’s seat, and then, he will be held accountable for the money looted. We have decided that the amount KCR has looted from the people of Telangana will be returned to the people,” he added.
