TRS will win GHMC on its own: Gangula

Expressing confidence about winning more than 100 seats, the Minister hoped that both Mayor and Deputy Mayor posts would be captured by the TRS

Karimnagar: BC Welfare and Civil Supplies Minister Gangula Kamalakar expressed confidence that Telangana Rashtra Samithi would capture Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation on its own without the support of other political parties as well as ex-officio members.

Expressing confidence about winning more than 100 seats, the Minister hoped that both Mayor and Deputy Mayor posts would be captured by the TRS.

Kamalakar was speaking after laying foundation stone for development of parks in 17 and 39th divisions here on Thursday. Speaking on the occasion, Minister termed Hyderabad as heart for Telangana and Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao was developing Hyderabad as a role model to the nation.

Stating Hyderabad was developed on all fronts after Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata, the Minister said this resulted in a number of multinational companies setting up shop in the State capital in the last six years.

The BJP tried to get more seats in GHMC elections by provoking youths in the name of religion. However, Hyderabad people had supported the ruling party, he added.

Greater Hyderabad election was a classic example of the six-year rule of the TRS government. Welfare schemes introduced by the State government would help in the victory of TRS candidates, he said.

The Minister advised BJP to stop making false allegations against TRS.

‘Development of towns possible only through TRS govt’

BC Welfare and Civil Supplies Minister Gangula Kamalakar on Thursday said development of towns was possible only through the TRS government.

Kamalakar along with Karimnagar Municipal Corporation Mayor Y Sunil Rao participated in various developmental programmes here.

Speaking on the occasion, Minister said development of towns was neglected in previous governments and growth had taken a back seat due to lack of funds.

However, in order to develop towns, Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao was sanctioning funds to municipalities under pattana pragathi. As part of this programme, KMC got Rs 27 crore during the last eight months.

Parks, open gyms, walking tracks, public toilets and graveyards would be developed in the town, he informed and assured to develop the town by completing all pending works.

Minister expressed hope that Karimnagar would become the second biggest towns after Hyderabad. While IT tower has already inaugurated, the works of Cable Bridge were completed. The works of Manair River Front would be taken up soon.

KMC commissioner Valluru Kranthi and others participated in the programme.
