Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka slams BRS, says ‘plunderers are coming together to bring back the rule of feudal lords'
Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka on Saturday trained his guns on the previous BRS rulers accusing them of looting the State's wealth for nearly ten years, leaving behind a debt of ₹7 lakh crore. 'Plunderers are coming together to disgrace the people's government and bring back the rule of the feudal lords,' he alleged while addressing a public meeting in Aswaraopet of Bhadradri Kothagudem district on Saturday. He laid the foundation stones for five new 33/11 kV sub-stations and other development works worth around ₹40 crore in Aswaraopet constituency earlier in the day. Revenue Minister Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy, Khammam MP R. Raghuram Reddy and Aswaraopet MLA Jare Adinarayana among others were present. In a hard-hitting speech, Mr. Vikramarka said, 'Those who ruled for ten years sucked life out of the people like leeches. The people voted for Indiramma's government to escape from that oppressive rule.' Mr. Vikramarka flayed the previous BRS rulers for failing to deliver on their promises like double-bedroom houses, three acres of land for Dalits, jobs for each household and KG-to-PG free education despite being in power for 10 years. 'Even when advised not to, former Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao proceeded with the ₹1 lakh crore Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Project, which eventually collapsed,' he alleged. He said, 'Those responsible for bankrupting the State are now pretending to speak about people's welfare and spreading false propaganda against the Congress government which is striving relentlessly for the betterment of the State under the aegis of Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy.' 'People should be wary of such elements which are indulging in misinformation campaign,' he added. 'We have not discontinued any welfare schemes initiated by the previous BRS government including Kalyana Lakshmi. Instead, our people's government added ₹2,000 more towards annual financial support to farmers under the Rythu Barosa scheme,' he asserted. He said the Congress government is all set to introduce the Indira Solar Giri Water Development Scheme for the benefit of tribal farmers in the State. The scheme will be launched by the Chief Minister at Chenchu Colony in Achampet of Nagarkurnool district on May 18.

Eatala fires failure salvo against Cong govt in TG
Hyderabad: Malkajgiri MP Eatala Rajender criticised the Congress-led state government for failing to fulfil its promise of clearing pending bills ranging from Rs 10 to Rs 20 lakh owed to contractors who completed various works. Addressing the media on Monday, he stated that the non-payment of these bills has pushed small contractors into dire financial situation. He alleged that contractors have been pressured to pay a 10 per cent commission to clear the pending bills. Additionally, police and RTC employees are struggling to withdraw their savings and obtain loans. Government employees, officials, and teachers are forced to roam around offices seeking retirement benefits, while retired employees are not receiving their pensions, he said. Rajender questioned the moral right of Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy to govern the state efficiently with the financial situation worsening. He expressed concern over the cancellation of old pensions and the non-acceptance of new pension applications for the elderly and disabled. He also criticised Congress for promising to deliver Kalyana Lakshmi cheques during marriages but failing to issue cheques even after the birth of children to those married. Furthermore, he alleged that the Indiramma Committees formed in villages are prioritising Congress workers for housing over deserving candidates, warning the Congress government that they will face protests from people. Due to untimely rains in the state, grains at procurement centres have become wet and muddy, causing farmers significant losses. Given that this is a dry season crop, he demanded the government purchase the soaked grain urgently and support the farmers. Eatala Rajender emphasised that the Congress government, led by Revanth Reddy, is failing and is resorting to diversionary politics to distract the public. He noted that the first caste census was conducted under British rule in 1935, and despite 90 years passing since then, Congress leaders such as Nehru and Rajiv Gandhi ignored the negative impacts of reservations on merit and skills development. They failed to prioritise the advancement of downtrodden classes. Rahul Gandhi may walk around holding the Constitution. However, Congress has a checkered history of defeating Ambedkar, the author of the Constitution. Although the backward classes (BC) population in the state exceeds 50 per cent, Congress has done an injustice by underestimating their numbers in the recent caste census, he added. 'The BJP takes credit for giving the country an OBC Prime Minister. In PM Modi's cabinet, there are several ministers from diverse backgrounds: 27 OBC from the OBC category, 12 Dalit ministers, 8 tribal ministers, and 5 minority ministers,' he added. Besides, more than 60 per cent of responsibilities have been assigned to poor and vulnerable groups. The Modi government aims to lead the country on a development path to achieve a Viksit Bharat (Developed India) by 2047. In contrast, the Congress government does not prioritise students, farmers, and the poor, he alleged.
