TRS did nothing in 100 days: TPCC
The Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) on Tuesday said that the people of the new State had spent 100 days under an ‘arrogant, insensitive and anti-welfare TRS government’.
Terms the government ‘arrogant, insensitive and anti-welfare’
Hyderabad: The Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) on Tuesday said that the people of the new State had spent 100 days under an ‘arrogant, insensitive and anti-welfare TRS government’.
Releasing a brochure, ‘100 Days of TRS Misrule’, at Gandhi Bhavan on Tuesday, the TPCC president Ponnala Lakshmaiah and vice-president Mohammed Ali Shabbir vowed to expose the failures of TRS government. They said the TPCC would now go into an agitation mode for providing justice to farmers, students, employees and other sections.
Ponnala said the promise of waiver of farm loans was the biggest lie in the history of Indian politics. He said the TS Cabinet cleared the loan waiver scheme because of the pressure from the Congress but since then there had been no progress in the matter. He said the inordinate delay had left the farmers disheartened and more than 200 farmers committed suicide since TRS came to power.
Referring to the Intensive Household Survey (IHS), he said it was another gimmick played by the TRS government to delay the implementation of welfare schemes. An unscientific approach was adopted to conduct the survey and thousands of households were left out by the untrained enumerators. The government intended to deprive the deserving beneficiaries of their right to get the benefits of various schemes, the TPCC president said. Shabbir Ali decried that the students, who had played a major role in achieving statehood for the region, were brutally beaten up when they opposed regularisation of contract employees.
The leader of Opposition in Assembly K Jana Reddy condemned the 100-day rule, terming it as period of 'non-performance'.
Speaking at a separate press conference along with former MPs Vivek and Ponnam Prabhakar, he accused the TRS government of cheating the people. He said the government had shifted an important Minister T Harish Rao to Medak to take charge of bye-poll ignoring the governance of an important department he holds as Minister. Meanwhile, the Lok Satta Party Telangana president B Rammohan Rao found fault with Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao for forcing 10 lakh people to travel to their native places from Telangana, as part of the household survey.
