Bharat Rashtra Samithi working president and Minister for Industries, IT, Municipal Administration and Urban Development K. T. Rama Rao on Friday lashed out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union government for cold-shouldering Telangana, not keeping promises made at the time of the State formation and deviating from the issue of basic necessities.
“We have no hope from this Union government... will take them [on] and ensure he is voted out at any cost in the next elections,” Mr. Rama Rao asserted, pointing out how it was not just about unfulfilled promises as well as little recognition for achievements of the State but also how NITI Aayog recommendations for grant of funding to Mission Bhagiratha piped drinking water supply project and Kaleswaram Lift Irrigation Project, which is the world’s largest, were not implemented.
