It is not ‘My Home’ deal: KCR
Alleging that the TDP leaders, who raised the issue and indulged in mudslinging against him and his family and tried to defame My Home constructions.
‘Revanth should prove charges or face action by Speaker’
Hyderabad: Strongly rebutting the TDP’s charge that KCR and his family had indulged in misuse of lands allocated to DLF at Rayadurg, Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao on Thursday challenged the members to prove their allegations or face stringent punishment.
Making a statement on the allotment of alternate land in Survey No 83/1 of Raidurg village in Serilingampalli mandal to DLF, KCR said all the decisions taken and the GOs issued subsequently were by the previous governments before the bifurcation of the state. The Congress government had sold the lands as part of resource mobilisation programme and wanted to earn Rs 10,000 crore, he said.
Alleging that the TDP leaders, who raised the issue and indulged in mudslinging against him and his family and tried to defame My Home constructions, which was the only 6-star Crisil rating company in South India, the Chief Minister said the TDP leader responsible for this should either prove the charges.
In the event of the TDP member failing to prove the charges should face stringent action by the Speaker for lowering the dignity and decorum of the House, he said. Claiming to be one of the senior most leaders in the state, the Chief Minister said that the opposition should learn to respect at least his seniority and desist from making wild and baseless allegations. He said he had risen in politics from the grassroots level and was now the Chief Minister of a new State.
He found no truth in the allegations that his government handed over a chunk of land to My Home constructions owned by J Rameshwar Rao after the TRS came to power. The company had bought the land in open auction. All the payments and registration of the land purchases were done before June 2. While the Congress government issued the GOs they were approved by the Governor during the period when the state was under the President’s rule, the Chief Minister said.
He further said such acts of wild allegations would lead to damaging the reputation of a company and could badly affect the investments in the new state. As TDP leader A Revanth Reddy got up to speak Education Minister G Jagadish Reddy and Irrigation Minister T Harish Rao confronted him stating that he should tender apology before he could speak.
