KCR hints at Cabinet reshuffle after June 2
Hyderabad: Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao has pulled up his Cabinet colleagues for their failure to come to grips with the respective departments in the implementation of various schemes of the government. He is also unhappy that the ministers lacked team work in the departments.
KCR, who held a marathon seven-hour meeting on Thursday with his council of ministers and parliament secretaries on various issues concerning governance, implementation of welfare schemes and programmes, performance and allegations against ministers and party activities besides the recent debacle in the MLC elections, is understood to have hauled up a few of his ministers for alleged corruption charges against them during the last few months.
The Chief Minister told the ministers to be focused and committed in their work so that nobody would raise fingers at them. “Thousands of eyes will be looking at you and judging your work,” he is understood to have said. Sources informed that he had one-on-one discussions with a few ministers as well. KCR is said to have made it clear that that ‘non-performing’ ministers would be shown the door during reshuffle of the Cabinet which may be taken up soon after the completion of one year of the government on June 2.
The Chief Minister is learnt to have told the ministers to share work with parliament secretaries of their respective departments. He emphasized that these posts were created to shed the load on the ministers. However, it has been noticed that there was no co-ordination between the two. He assured parliament secretaries that the government would soon issue a GO fixing responsibility to them.
KCR is learnt to have directed his ministerial colleagues to spend more time in districts and oversee implementation of Mission Kakatiya works, which he felt should be wrapped up before the onset of monsoon. He also sought explanation from the Cabinet ministers on party’s mixed performance in the MLC elections. It may be mentioned here that TRS overcame stiff fight from the BJP to capture Khammam-Warangal-Nalgonda MLC Graduates seat, besides losing the key Mahbubnagar-Hyderabad-Ranga Reddy segment to the saffron party.
