Telangana Budget Share Denial Alleged
K T Rama Rao, the working president of the BRS party, said that Telangana has not received its fair share of money in the latest Union Budget.
He accused the central government, led by the BJP, of treating Telangana unfairly for over ten years.
Rao also criticized the state's Chief Minister, Revanth Reddy, for not bringing any benefits to Telangana despite many visits to New Delhi.
He mentioned that important projects like the Palamuru–Ranga Reddy irrigation project and Metro Rail expansion have not been addressed.
Rao demanded that the Congress and BJP leaders from Telangana explain this injustice to the people.
Additionally, he described the questioning of former chief minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao by the SIT as a diversionary tactic by the Congress government to distract from their budget failures.
BRS Working President K T Rama Rao accused the Centre of denying Telangana its rightful share in the Union Budget.
He alleged a discriminatory approach by the BJP-led Centre towards Telangana for over a decade.
Rao criticized Chief Minister Revanth Reddy's 60 visits to New Delhi, claiming they yielded no financial benefits.
He highlighted the failure of the 'big brother–little brother' understanding between Congress and BJP to translate into financial gains.
Rao demanded answers from Congress and BJP MPs, Union Ministers, and the State Government for the alleged injustice.
