Watch: BRS dumps Ghose Commission report in dustbin, vows to continue legal, political fight
BRS working president KT Rama Rao and senior MLA T Harish Rao slammed the Congress government in the Assembly over the PC Ghose Commission report on the Kaleshwaram project, calling it politically motivated and a 'trash document'. The BRS staged a symbolic protest by discarding the report at the Telangana Martyrs' Memorial.
Hyderabad: Calling the Justice PC Ghose Commission report on the Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Project (KLIP) a trash document, BRS working president KT Rama Rao vowed to continue both a legal and political fight against the Congress government’s conspiracy with the BJP to permanently close down Telangana’s lifeline project.
The BRS staged a walkout from the Assembly late on Sunday night, protesting against the denial of speaking time during the debate on the PC Ghose Commission report on the Kaleshwaram project. Led by Rama Rao and senior MLA T Harish Rao, the BRS MLAs marched to Gun Park in protest.
At the Telangana Martyrs’ Memorial, they threw the Ghose Commission report into a dustbin, calling it a trash document, and raised slogans against the government.
Speaking on the occasion, Rama Rao alleged that the Commission was politically motivated, aimed at tarnishing the reputation of the previous BRS government including that of former Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao and Harish Rao, while helping Andhra Pradesh in water diversion.
He accused Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy of misleading people ahead of the local body polls and vowed that BRS would fight both legally and politically, with constituency-level awareness campaigns if required.
Stating that both the Congress and the BJP were complicit, he questioned why there was no commission or inquiry on the SLBC tunnel collapse, Vattem pumphouse submergence, Sunkishala retaining wall collapse and when the Pedavagu project was washed away twice?
He reminded that the NDSA, which found fault with the Kaleshwaram project for minor repairs, was ignoring the SLBC tunnel collapse or Polavaram project incident despite severe damages.
“People of Telangana are smarter and will teach a befitting lesson to both BJP and Congress,” he added.
Harish Rao accused Congress of ignoring real issues like floods and urea shortage, but instead choosing to discuss the Ghose Commission report. He said while failing to construct a single project in two years, the Congress was taking credit for BRS’s work. He dared Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka to prove his claim that no new irrigation ayacut was created under the BRS rule or resign from his post.
