Congress govt. pressuring banks for loans: BJP

Former MLA and Telangana BJP vice president N.V.S.S. Prabhakar has accused the Congress government of pressuring the banks to issue loans by mortgaging contentious public lands. Mr. Prabhakar, who met Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in New Delhi on Tuesday, told mediapersons later that the financial condition in the State has gone from bad to worse with the State government in no position to take further loans since it had exceeded Fiscal Responsibility & Budget Management (FRBM) limits. The Finance Minister was told about Telangana's fiscal situation and how the State government here has been not releasing matching grants though it keeps on complaining about the Centre not releasing funds under various schemes, he said. The BJP leader alleged that the Congress government has been cheating people by not implementing various Central government schemes and wanted action to be taken for the same. The government here was only dependent on sale of land or liquor for revenue generation, said a press release.

BJP questions delay in Indiramma housing scheme allotments

BJP vice-president and ex-MLA N.V.S.S. Prabhakar has demanded the Government to expedite the Indiramma housing scheme allotment to the eligible beneficiaries without any further delay. At a press conference here on Wednesday, the BJP leader pointed out that the 10 years of BRS rule and now 15 months of Congress regime has given a clear picture that the eligible beneficiaries drawn from the poor and downtrodden sections of the society have been cheated by both the regimes. 'The poor have been neglected and deprived of their rights in getting benefits of the promised housing scheme and other welfare schemes. Instead of truly helping poor people, persons affiliated to the political parties concerned have majorly cornered the schemes so far,' he charged. The former MLA also questioned the need for former Minister T. Harish Rao to profess his loyalty to ex-Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao and his readiness to accept K.T. Rama Rao as the next party chief all of a sudden. He saw a 'deal' between the Congress and the BRS to get the bigwigs of the previous government off the hook with regards to the ongoing investigations into various scams. The ruling party would also be providing legal assistance to MLC Kavita in her Delhi liquor case. It is also possible for both parties to merge, he added. Rallies The BJP has announced that it will be taking out 'Tiranga' rallies throughout the state as a gesture of solidarity with the armed forces for their successful 'Operation Sindoor', beginning with Hyderabad from Tank Bund to the B.R. Ambedkar statue on May 17. These rallies are to be taken out in association with the Telangana Citizens for National Security in all the district headquarters from May 18 to 20 and in all municipal areas as well as Assembly constituencies from May 21 to 23, informed general secretary K. Venkateshwarlu and others at another press meet.
