KTR nails Nadda’s graft lies against KCR

Hyderabad: MA&UD Minister KT Rama Rao on Monday took strong exception to BJP president J P Nadda’s allegations of corruption against Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao. He also attacked Congress top leader Sonia Gandhi alleging that delay by her in granting statehood to Telangana when UPA was in power led to many youths dying by suicide for the creation of the State.

While the BRS government in Telangana ensured the construction of 35 flyovers and underpasses, the Centre that took up the construction of two flyovers at Uppal and Amberpet has not been able to complete them on time. The snail’s pace of progress of the two flyovers shows the speed at which the Modi government works, he claimed.
