Hyderabad : Agriculture Minister S Niranjan Reddy today flayed the BJP comments of corruption and irregularities in irrigation and development and welfare schemes in the state. He released ‘Rytu Margadarshi’ book at Haritha Plaza here and appreciated the work done by the stte Government for farmers.
Later he said that Telangana government is spending huge funds for farmers welfare and other states are appreciating the same. The MPs have asked to link employment guarantee scheme with farm sector, and we will make efforts for farmers welfare.
He condemned as baseless the charges of the BJP national working president JP Nadda against the projects and schemes.
He asked whether any other BJP government in the country built a project in less time. We built Kaleshwaram irrigation system in just three years and set a record, he claimed. The BJP and the Congress are making false allegations for political mileage, he alleged.
Telangana government is committed to push welfare schemes for the development of the farmers in the state. Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao is implementing Rythu bandhu, Rytu Bhima for farmers welfare. When other states and also Niti Ayog appreciated them, the BJP and the Congress are indulging in corruption charges, he objected.
The Centre ignored Niti Ayog’s recommendation to give Rs 24000 crore to Telangana government for Mission Kakatiya and Mission Bhagiratha, he said.(NSS)
