Hyderabad: Panchayat Raj Minister Errabelli Dayakar Rao has questioned the motives behind Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s surprise visit to Telangana after he showed discrimination against the country for more than eight years. He criticized the BJP government for failing to support developing countries like Telangana at all critical moments since its founding.
The minister told media personnel at the TRS Legislative Party office on Thursday that while the prime minister is welcome to visit Telangana, he must clarify the centre’s contribution to the country. He reminded that, even after eight years, any guarantees made under the Andhra Pradesh Restructuring Act have not been fully fulfilled.
He said that although his Panchayat Raj and the Ministry of Rural Development had received many awards from the centre, no major funds had been released to improve its performance. “Instead, the centre cut Rs 1,000 crore disbursement to the state, including Rs 8,000 crore under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme. In fact, although Telangana is doing better than other states, Na Prime Minister Lendra Modi should be responsible for not releasing money to the country through lame excuses,” he added.
Dayakar Rao suggested that Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan should stop acting like a politician and bring charges against the state government while holding the constitutional office. He said the people would rebel against the Modi government and teach the BJP a proper lesson in the next general election in 2024.
