Congress and BRS Misleading People on Telangana Water Rights, says Bandi Sanjay

Union minister for state for home affairs Bandi Sanjay Kumar launched a scathing attack on both the Congress and BRS parties, accusing them of colluding in misleading people of Telangana regarding the state’s water rights. 

Addressing media in Karimnagar on Thursday, he accused the two parties of indulging in political theatrics to divert public attention from implementation of six guarantees and corruption investigations.

Sanjay Kumar charged Congress with failing Telangana in united Andhra Pradesh. While the state had been entitled to



811 TMC from Krishna River and 1,486 TMC from Godavari, Congress never enabled TS region to enjoy more than a fraction of its share.

The Union minister for state targeted former chief minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao, accusing him of turning irrigation projects into tools of plunder. Budget for Kaleshwaram project had been hiked from `30,000 crore to nearly `1 lakh crore just for misappropriation of funds. After returning to power for a second term, KCR again spent `27,000 crore in the name of Palamuru-Rangareddy project, yet failed to deliver even a single drop of water.
