Telangana Finance & Health Minister T Harish Rao today excoriated Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his false remarks against the statehood for Telangana.
He expressed his displeasure at the Prime Minister for indulging in falsehood on the bifurcation and statehood to Telangana. He also faulted Modi for stating that the mother was killed to give birth to the child (bifurcation and did injustice to Andhra Pradesh).
Harish also castigated the Modi government for stating that the division of united Andhra Pradesh was not correct as it was not developed. “Now the Prime Minister was spitting venom on the Telangana State formation instead of giving funds and support for the development of the infant State, he felt.
Laying the foundation for a T Hub and Radiology Lab at Hanmakonda along with Minister Errabelli Dayakar Rao, local leaders and officials, Harish Rao accused Narendra Modi of indulging in vilification campaign against youngest State. After eight years of separate State, Modi was trying to insult the sacrifices of the people of the State and the government. “Often the Modi government was resorting to malicious campaign against statehood and failing to give funds for development”. Out of 157 medical colleges given to various States, the Modi Government did not spare a single college to Telangana and also several projects like steel factory, coach factory, and others”, he fumed.

The Finance Minister said the BJP Government at the Centre failed to provide any support for State’s development in eight years and Modi has been continuously talking against the State and finding fault with the bifurcation of the united Andhra Pradesh and formation of Telangana, he bemoaned. He also alleged that the BJP Government was deliberately ignoring Telangana appeals for schools, colleges, ITIR, IMA institutions, national status to Kaleshwaram or Palamur Ranga Reddy projects and so on, he said. Despite Niti Ayog recommending Rs 24,000 crore for the new State, Prime Minister Modi deprived it, he charged. He claimed that in spite of step-motherly treatment by the Modi government, the youngest State was at the forefront of development in all sectors, and seven out of 10 medals adopted by MPs, got awards at the Central level.
“Despite the Modi’s government showed empty hand for a long time we are spending huge funds for welfare and development”, he said and slammed the Centre for giving away seven mandals in Khammam district and the Sileru project to Andhra Pradesh after bifurcation of the United State. Repeated appeals made in this regard went in vain as there was no positive response from the Centre, he added. Harish Rao appealed to journalists to take on the Modi Government for his provocative remarks on Telangana State formation. He said Warangal journalists played a key role in the statehood movement along with all those in Hyderabad and other districts.
The Modi Government should avoid spreading falsehood and instead give support to the State for development, he urged. Otherwise, the people will teach the BJP a lesson if they failed to stop spreading falsehood on Telangana, he added.
