Telangana Congress has questioned the government’s claims of being the richest state in the country while resorting to desperate sale of government lands, and said it only shows how hollow the claims were.
Speaking to reporters here, Kisan Congress national vice president M. Kodanda Reddy, and TPCC vice-presidents Chamala Kiran Reddy and S. Jagadeeshwar said that all the lands in the recent auctions were bought by the friends and relatives of the BRS Ministers K.T. Rama Rao and T. Harish Rao and all these realtors had benefitted earlier from their support.
Earlier, lands in G.O. 111 were in the hands of farmers but now they had fallen in the hands of realtors, mostly related to the BRS or the Ministers. That was the only reason that the government wanted desperately abolish the G.O., he claimed.
