Telangana Allocates ₹76 Lakh for Minister's House Repair
The Telangana government has given ₹76 lakh to fix up a house for one of its ministers, Mohammed Azharuddin.
This house is in a nice area of Hyderabad called Banjara Hills.
The house hadn't been used for a long time, about 15 years, so it needed a lot of repairs.
Some people are surprised because the government says it doesn't have much money, but it still spent a lot on this house.
The repairs include fixing the floors, roofs, electricity, doors, and windows.
The government says these repairs were necessary after checking the house.
Telangana government approved ₹76 lakh for repairing Minister Mohammed Azharuddin's official residence.
The residence, located in Hyderabad's Banjara Hills, had been unused for nearly 15 years.
Repairs include fixing damaged flooring, leaking roofs, electrical fittings, and structural issues.
The allocation has raised eyebrows due to the government's claims of financial constraints.
Technical assessments confirmed the need for extensive renovations due to significant deterioration.
