MLA Podem calls on Governor Tamilisai
Bhadrachalam MLA Podem Veeraiah submitting a memorandum to Governor Dr Tamilisai Soundararajan at Raj bhavan at Hyderabad on Sunday
Explains the plight of people due to the recent floods
Bhadrachalam: MLA Podem Veeraiah met Governor Tamilsai Soundararajan at Rajbhavan in Hyderabad on Sunday. During the meeting, the MLA urged the Governor to direct the State government to take measures to save Bhadrachalam from floods. He submitted a memorandum to Governor, listing the extent of property loss and the measures need to be taken to prevent their recurrence.
The MLA also took up the issues of the five panchayats of Yetpaka, Kannayagudem, Purushothapatnam, Gundal and Pitchukulapadu which were merged in AP. Their interests were not being taken care of the AP government and it recently ignored their plight during the floods. The people were no longer willing to continue their villages in Andhra Pradesh. They took out protests and demanded their re-merger into Telangana State, he informed the Governor.
Veeraiah also stated that the TRS government had not conducted local body elections in Bhadrachlam major panchayat. The elections were last conducted in 2014. Congress party leaders B Srinivas, N Venkanna, S Naresh, B Satish, B Ramu and Aditya accompanied the MLA.
