Prime Minister Narendra Modi accuses Congress government in Telangana of ‘inaction’ on ‘KLIP scam’

Launching a broadside against the Congress and the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), Prime Minister Narendra Modi alleged that the Congress government which came to power in Telangana was holding back the files related to the ‘scam’ in Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Project (KLIP) that occurred during the previous BRS government.

“The family-centric parties share a common history of nepotism, corruption and appeasement,“ he charged while addressing a public meeting titled “Vijaya Sankalpa Sabha” in Telangana’s Adilabad town on Monday afternoon.

Instead of taking action against those responsible for the scam in the KLIP, the Congress government in Telangana is sitting on the files, he alleged, saying it was evident that nothing was going to change under the Congress rule in Telangana.
