Sab ka saath-sab ka vikas has become Gujarat ka saath-Gujarat ka vikas, slams KTR
BRS working president KT Rama Rao said it was strange of the Prime Minister to criticize the Telangana Government, which had filled 2.20 lakh government vacancies.
Hyderabad: Launching a broadside against Prime Minister Narendra Modi for failing to address long-pending demands of allotting steel factory at Bayyaram, Tribal University and coach factory at Kazipet, BRS working president and Industries minister KT Rama Rao said it was strange of the Prime Minister to criticize the Telangana Government, which had filled 2.20 lakh government vacancies in the State.
The Prime Minister on Saturday toured Warangal tour to lay foundation for road works and Railway manufacturing unit at Kazipet. He also addressed a public meeting at the venue and made critical remarks against the Telangana Government, especially in terms of unemployment.

Minutes after the Prime Minister concluded his tour, the BRS working president came down heavily on him, pointing out the failures of BJP-led union government in different sectors, especially the discrimination towards Telangana.
Coach factory at Kazipet was a long-pending demand of Telangana and was even assured under AP Reorganization Act. Yet, the Prime Minister sanctioned a locomotive factory for Gujarat with an investment of Rs 20,000 crore. On the contrary, Telangana was allotted a Railway wagon repair unit with a paltry investment of Rs 520 crore. This is nothing but insulting Telangana people, he said.
“Prime Minister Modi keeps chanting Sab ka saath- Sab ka vikas slogan but it has now turned into Gujarat ka saath – Gujarat ka Vikas,” Rama Rao said in a statement.
Similarly, Telangana has been appealing for steel factory at Bayyaram, which would have created employment for 15,000 people, revival of Cement Corporation of India and Tribal University but the Prime Minister did not utter a word about these demands, he said, adding that the people would teach fitting lesson to the saffron party in the ensuing elections.
Listing out the BJP Government’s failures in filling up vacancies, the BRS working president slammed that there were 16 lakh vacancies in government departments at the Centre. Yet, the Prime Minister comments on Telangana Government, which had filled up 2.20 lakh vacancies in the State.
The Prime Minister stated that golden period had arrived for the country and urged the youth to make good use of the opportunity. But it would have been great had he listed out the initiatives taken for welfare of youth in the country, he said. “Prime Minister Narendra Modi has the dubious distinction of being the most ineffective leader, who created highest unemployment,” Rama Rao said.
Taking a dig at Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan for delaying the approval of Bills sent by the State Government, he said the Prime Minister should have advised the Governor, who was delaying the exercise to fill up the vacancies in universities by sitting on the Bill.
At a time, when Telangana was setting a benchmark for other States in ensuring the welfare and development of farming community, it was strange that Prime Minister spoke about farmers’ welfare.
Despite stiff opposition, the BJP Government had introduced three farm laws and was responsible for the death of 700 farmers, who protested in the National Capital against the farm laws, he said, ridiculing that Prime Minister talking about farmers’ welfare was like devils preaching holy scriptures.
Countering the Prime Minister’s family rule remark on the BRS government, he said entire Telangana was a family and were family members of the Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao. “BRS government strives for the welfare of all sections and yes our’s is a Telangana family party,” Rama Rao said.
Casting aspersive comments on Telangana Government and coming with empty hands to the State, besides failing to address long-pending demands has become a habit for the Prime Minister, he added.
