Kavitha Criticizes BRS and Congress Govts Over Krishna Water Issue
A leader named Kavitha is upset with both the old government (BRS) and the new government (Congress) in Telangana.
She feels they have not done enough to get water from the Krishna river to their state, even after many years.
She is also concerned about unfinished building projects for irrigation, like tunnels and water lifts, and wants the government to take control of a canal.
Kavitha accused some government officials of being too close to a specific company.
She also spoke about helping farmers, supporting students, ensuring women get their promised reservations, and making sure government hospitals have medicines for pain relief during childbirth.
She believes the government isn't doing enough for all people in Telangana.
Telangana Jagruthi president Kalvakuntla Kavitha criticized both BRS and Congress governments for failing to secure Krishna river waters for Telangana.
Kavitha questioned the delays in completing irrigation projects like the SLBC tunnel and Dindi lift schemes, and demanded control over the Nagarjuna Sagar project's left canal.
She alleged that current ministers and the Chief Minister have a close relationship with the Megha company.
Kavitha also raised concerns about cotton farmers, student union elections, women's reservations, and the availability of epidural injections in government hospitals.
She highlighted issues of discrimination against SCs and STs and stated Telangana Jagruthi's commitment to a socially just Telangana.
