Hyderabad: Former Minister and BRS MLA T Harish Rao took a dig at Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy, for reducing governance to a private affair, and operating from his Jubilee Hills residence or the Police Command Control Centre instead of the official Dr BR Ambedkar State Secretariat.
Criticizing the Chief Minister’s approach, Harish Rao pointed out that government decisions are being dictated from high-security zones, while Grama Sabhas in villages being conducted under police surveillance. He charged Revanth Reddy who promised to conduct Praja Darbar and meet people everyday, for running the government from closed doors for last one year and sidelining people’s governance.
“Despite a state-of-the-art Secretariat, Ministers and officials are repeatedly summoned to the Chief Minister’s personal residence, reinforcing an authoritarian style of rule,” he charged. Mocking the Congress’s claims of reviving ‘Indira’s Rajyam,’ he said the current administration reflects arrogance, not public service.
