Vinod Kumar comes down heavily on Modi
Vinod Kumar came down heavily on Modi stating that the largesse he had shown in terms of sanctioning and release of funds in the election-bound States, was missing in Telangana.
Hyderabad: The State Planning Board Vice Chairman Boinapally Vinod Kumar came down heavily on the Prime Minister Narendra Modi stating that the largesse he had shown in terms of sanctioning and release of funds in the election-bound States, was missing in Telangana. Not to speak of funds, he did not make even promises to the State, he quipped.
Responding to Prime Minister’s disparaging remarks against the the Bharat Rashtra Samithi leadership, he said Modi was well aware of the fact that the BJP would draw a blank in the ensuing polls in the state. That was reason why he proved to be tight-fisted in making sanction of funds to the state. He did not make any fresh assurances as well.

National Highways are our right, he said.
