Minister for IT, Industries and Urban Development K.T. Rama Rao, who is also the working president of TRS, has trained his guns again on BJP and its leadership including Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his periodical interaction with netizens on a social media platform on Sunday and said the Telangana Government has given up on Centre regarding State’s requests.
“This NPA (Non-Performing Asset) Govt will not give Telangana anything. Gave up on them”, KTR said in response to a netizen asking whether there is any plan to achieve ITIR project by pursuing with the Union Govt. The Centre had failed to implement ITIR project in Hyderabad but Telangana was attracting more companies and projects creating jobs with investment-friendly policies, the netizen said.
To a related query asking whether Telangana could be a one-stop location for professional education with IIMs and IITs and whether there was any chance of Centre allocating any such institution to the State in 2022, KTR said: “Not a single national educational institution such as IIM, IISER, NID or IIIT sanctioned by this Union Govt to Telangana. It’s hopeless to expect anything from them as we’ve been requesting for 8 years in vain”.
