Speaking to the media, Kavitha said different sections of people in Maharashtra were appealing to expand BRS operations in the State. People were demanding replication of Telangana model of governance in Maharashtra, she said.
Telangana shares nearly 1000 kilometres of its border with Maharashtra. There was a lot of difference in terms of welfare and development programmes being implemented in the two States. Unlike in Hyderabad, where drinking water was being supplied round the clock, in Mumbai drinking water was being supplied for only two hours in a day, she said.
“When the Telangana government could supply drinking water to every household across the State, why cannot Maharashtra government implement such a programme?” she asked.
Since Independence, provision of basic amenities like drinking water and power to households, was still a challenge in many States in the country. But Telangana, the youngest State in the country, had addressed these issues by nearly 98 per cent, she said, adding that the BRS party would fight for such people centric issues.
BRS would play a crucial role in the comprehensive development of Maharashtra, she said. On the possibilities of contesting elections in Maharastra, she said the party would make an announcement in this regard.
