Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a dig at Telangana’s ruling Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) and its chief State Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao, popularly known as KCR, on Saturday, accusing them of obstructing the centre’s development projects and indulging in ‘parivarvaad’ (family rule) and corruption.PM Modi seems to have stepped into the Election mode for Telangana.
The Prime Minister came to Hyderabad to inaugurate and lay the foundation for projects worth 11,300 Crore.
Addressing a public rally in Hyderabad, PM Modi said that the state government was not cooperating with the centre in implementing various schemes and initiatives that would benefit the people of Telangana, which will hold elections later this year.
“I am pained at the non-cooperation of the state government in the centre’s projects.This is affecting the dreams of the people of Telangana.
I appeal to the state government to not allow any obstruction in developments being planned for Telangana people,” PM Modi said.
The PM attacked KCR Government for the first time directly.
“Several projects were delayed because of non-cooperation of the Telangana Government causing inconvenience to people.A handful of people are against development.
They are worried about those who are committed to working.They look for benefits for their family in every project.
Corruption and nepotism are no lt different,” the PM said without naming KCR.
“Do you not want to fight the corrupt and get rid of them or not? Why the law should not act against the corrupt? Keeping the corrupt away alone would benefit the people of Telangana.Bless us for the sake of Telangana’s development,” Modi appealed to the people.
Earlier in the day, the PM flagged off the Secunderabad-Tirupati Vande Bharat Express train from Secunderabad Railway station.
