Municipal Administration Minister K.T. Rama Rao has charged Union Minister Kishan Reddy with misleading people with false figures related to the funds released under the National Disaster Response Fund (NDRF) and State Disaster Response Fund (SDRF) despite knowing that the latter was the rightful share of the State.
In a statement here, KTR reminded that the SDRF fund was a constitutional right of every State and it was one of the ways the States got back the taxes paid by them to the Central Government. He said the Union Minister should learn about this fact and not combine NDRF and SDRF funds.
The Minister advised him to read the statement given by Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Nityanand Rai in Parliament where he clearly said that not a single penny had been given to Telangana after 2018.
