TS hasn’t got support from Modi govt yet: KTR

Says the Centre has fallen short of Telangana’s expectations
Hyderabad: The Narendra Modi government has clearly demonstrated intent to do good in its 100 days in office but has fallen short of expectations of Telangana State which is looking for support, the TS Panchayat Raj Minister K T Rama Rao said here on Thursday.
He said, “Hundred days is too early to judge anybody. So, we think the intent is there. But we have to wait and see how far the Modi government will deliver.”
He said being in government in Telangana they know in a transition, especially in a big country like ours, it does take time for things going. “When you are new to government there is lot of intent and lot of motivation to do good. But how far will you be able to execute and what methods you will adopt is something that will be watched closely,” he said.
Asked if he felt Andhra Pradesh was favoured more by Centre compared to Telangana, a view held by some sections in the new State, KTR said, “That question one has to ask the Union government. But I can tell you one thing for sure that the support that Telangana should receive definitely has not come about.”
He said the TS government was disappointed with Modi rule for annexing seven mandals of Telangana with Andhra Pradesh. He also said there was not much in the Union Budget to rejoice from Telangana’s perspective.
