Municipal and IT Minister KT Rama Rao today claimed that Telangana has become a “Rice Bowl of India” as it produces a huge 52.76 lakh acres of paddy as the state surpasses neighboring Tamil Nadu which produces less than half of paddy yield.
The Minister participated in development programs in the Siricilla segment he represented and vowed to develop the districts. KT Rama Rao inaugurated two-bedroom houses for the poor and started a Rythu Vedika in the Mustabad area in the segment.

Speaking on the occasion he ridiculed that the Congress rule built some box-type tiny houses for the poor which failed to serve the purpose.
However, the TRS Regime of KCR builds the 2BHK each at a cost of about Rs 5.70 lakh with all facilities. Each house costs more compared to the houses built in the Congress regime before bifurcation he said. More than 6000 houses of 2BHK are allotted to this segment and the beneficiaries will get them on completion.
The minister claimed that the TRS rule has addressed several issues in the state which were not done by the successive governments in the past 75 years. He also said that the Congress and the BJP ruled states are away from development compared to Telangana which is forging ahead in all sectors.
The center though giving awards to our programs is reluctant to give funds and support to our development, the minister said.
The minister claimed that after achieving Telangana state we are providing water to crops, 24 hours power to farming activities, two-bedroom houses for the poor for self-respect, and completed irrigation projects by spending huge funds. Water, jobs, and resources are amply being used by the TRS government as promised by the party supremo K Chandrasekhar Rao, KT Rama Rao said.
