Kothagudem: Criticising the Central government for not implementing the promises made in State Reorganisation Act, CPI leaders and activists conducted ‘jail bharo’ programme in Kothagudem on Monday.

Speaking on the occasion, party State joint secretary Kunamaneni Sambasiva Rao alleged that the Central government was not implementing the promises it made to the State during reorganisation.
The KCR government in the State also not implementing its election promises, he pointed out. He questioned KCR, who supported the BJP government in the election of vice-president, why he was silent when the Centre was not implementing its promises.
