Revanth Reddy admits failure to counter social media campaign
“We are busy working 18 hours a day but our party activists are still caught up in celebrations. We are lagging behind in countering the narrative against the government on social media,” Revanth Reddy said
Nalgonda: Claiming that the Congress government was fulfilling the promises made to people, Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy admitted that however, the party was lagging behind in countering the campaign against the government on social media.
“We are busy working 18 hours a day but our party activists are still caught up in celebrations. We are lagging behind in countering the narrative against the government on social media,” Revanth Reddy said while addressing a public meeting here on Saturday.
It was the responsibility of party activists to support and save the government, he said, reiterating his plan for a Future City in 50,000 acres in place of Pharma City.
“If something has to be constructed, someone has to lose something. I assure you that the River Musi project will also be taken up, irrespective of the opposition,” he said.
The Chief Minister also said Roads and Buildings Minister Komatireddy Venkat Reddy had sought approval for an Outer Ring Road (ORR) around Nalgonda instead of the Regional Ring Road (RRR). The Nalgonda ORR project costs only Rs.400 crore but the RRR project costs Rs.35,000 crore. When union Minister Nitin Gadkari said only one project can be approved, Venkat Reddy had asked approval for the Nalgonda ORR, he said, adding that the State government would later get the RRR project approved by the Centre.
