Congress has plans to privatise Singareni: Kavitha

Says the Telangana government duped SCCL workers by providing only half of the amount from the company’s profits

KARIMNAGAR: BRS MLC K Kavitha on Wednesday said the Congress government and Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka were conspiring to privatise the Singareni Collieries Company Limited.

The State government had duped Singareni workers by providing only half of the amount from the SCCL profits, she said while addressing a press conference in Godavarikhani on Wednesday after participating in the BRS silver jubilee preparatory meeting in the coal belt town.

Talking about irregularities in Group-I examinations, she demanded the State government to cancel the exam. While former Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao helped the unemployed youth by bringing GO 55, the Congress government was doing injustice to them by issuing GO 29. The separate State agitation was done only for the cause of nativity. However, the Congress was again trying to revive the non-local issue.

The previous BRS government gave notification to recruit 80,000 vacant jobs. Of them 50,000 posts were filled by the state government. However, the Congress leaders were claiming that they had created new jobs.
