Jala Deeksha to pressure TRS government to complete projects: Congress leaders in Rajanna Sircilla
Instead of criticising the opposition parties, if the ruling TRS party has any commitment towards its people should finish all the pending irrigation projects as early as possible, says TPCC former president Ponam Prabhakar who was put under house arrest in Rajanna sircilla
Rajanna Sircilla: By visiting the projects to exert pressure on the TRS government for taking up the pending projects and complete them as early as possible, the Congress party has taken up Jala Deeksha programme, informed TPPC working president Ponnam Prabhakar who was put under house arrest by the police here in Rajanna Siricilla district on Saturday.
Even though, the Congress party had applied for project visits before hand, the Telangana government using its police power arrested all the Congress leaders since morning at various places across the erstwhile Karimnagar district undemocratically and illegally, he alleged.
Without completing the constructions works of the 9th package of Kaleshwaram project, how the TRS government completed Kondapochamma and Ranganayaka Sagar project under 10th package. Why the government is showing negligence in completing the Upper Manair reservoir.
IT Minister KTR should explain to the people of Siricilla about failure of the government, he demanded.
Ponnam Prabhakar said that when the Congress party was in power, they started the separate Telangana movement alleging that the Andhra rulers were robbing the people of Telangana of funds, water and jobs.
Then why Upper Manair project was not taken up even after completing six years of achievement of separate Telangana state, he questioned.
Instead of criticising the opposition parties, if the ruling TRS party has any commitment towards its people should finish all the pending irrigation projects as early as possible. The Kondapochamma Sagar project was washed away with just mild rainfall. If works will be taken up without maintaining standards indulging in corruption, then what is use of the constructing such projects, he added.
By encouraging illegal arrests, the Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao's son KTR is trying to suppress the voice of the opposition parties. At least now he must focus on completion of Upper Manair project and must complete it by October as he promised to the people of Siricilla district, he added.
Meanwhile, the police also house arrested Congress leader Bomma Sri Ram in Husnabad mandal and former minister and Manthini MLA D Sridhar Babu in Manthini and MLC T Jeevan Reddy in Jagtial district.
District president N Sathyanarayana, Town president S Srinivas, congress party leaders Dr.K Sathyanarayana, P Kaoushik Reddy, K Narendar Reddy, Anjani Kumar, K Padma Reddy, U Ravi, S Devaraju, D Narsaiah, S Lakshmi Reddy, A Balaraju, M Thirupathi, P Krishna, Abdul Rehman, M Jeevan were present along with others.
