KCR was a Minister in TDP when Pothireddypadu was started: Bhatti
The Hindu
He is silent on Rayalaseema Lift Irrigation project for his financial interests
Congress Legislature Party (CLP) leader Bhatti Vikramarka has said Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao has to take the blame for Pothireddypadu as it was started by the Telugu Desam government when KCR was a minister in N. T. Rama Rao cabinet. At a press conference here, he said KCR had no moral right to blame Congress leaders on the Pothireddypadu Head Regulator as he had not opposed it as TDP minister then. In fact, it was Telangana Congress leaders who fought against the increase of water withdrawal from it. And it was Congress leaders who went to AICC president Sonia Gandhi seeking separate Telangana when KCR was enjoying power in Telugu Desam Party, he argued. Mr. Bhatti said Congress had been warning the government on the Rayalaseema Lift Irrigation project at Sangameshwar for the last one year but KCR was silent worried over his financial relationship with AP leadership. On numerous occasions, Congress raised the issue that AP would take away 11 tmcft every day thus hitting inflows into Srisailam and subsequently into Nagarjuna Sagar projects but the TRS government was mum for reasons known to everyone.More Related News
