Addressing a press conference here, Union Minister of State for Home Affairs G Kishan Reddy said the manifesto committee will concentrate on issues such as drainage, drinking water and roads, which were promised by the State government. “The government must explain to the people of greater Hyderabad what it has done for them in the past six years,” he said.
He alleged that L&T company was demanding Rs 3,500 crore as damages because of the State government’s decision to do away with the Metro line to the old city. “The State government is deliberately delaying full scale functioning of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) by not handing over buildings,” he said.
