People should question unimplementable freebies by parties, says Eatala Rajender

Former Minister and Telangana BJP election coordination committee chairman Eatala Rajender on Thursday has appealed to the people to question political parties and leaders about how they intend to implement the freebies announced as part of the welfare schemes and the financial outgo when they come for campaign during the elections.

“Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao had also announced several schemes like stipend to the unemployed, total farm loan waiver, two-bedroom housing for all, Dalit Bhima and so on. But, deeds have not matched words and every section has been cheated after he boasted about being a rich State and what not,” he remarked.

Addressing a press conference at the party office, Mr. Rajender said the BRS government has been forced to depend on liquor sales and mortgage even roads to fund the welfare schemes and now the Congress party is following suit by making “unimplementable” promises without indicating from where the funds will be raised.
