Telangana’s Sole Agenda To Ensure Development Of All Sections In The Country: KCR

" Telangana’s sole agenda was to ensure development of all sections in the country, he said. Our people should lead the efforts in achieving remarkable and qualitative change, besides building a prosperous and amazing India,”  Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao (KCR) said.

The Chief Minister hoisted the national flag at Public Gardens as part of Telangana Formation Day celebrations here on Thursday.

Addressing the occasion, he said Telangana had made rapid strides in progress in a short span of eight years. Telangana registered unimaginable victories, which no State in the country could not do so in 75 years. Telangana State had become a role model to the country in economic development, increase in Per Capita Income, supply of 24-hour free and quality power to all sectors, creation of additional irrigation and supply of drinking water, the welfare of people, growth in IT and Industries and almost in all the sectors,” KCR said. Lashing out at the BJP-led Central Government, he said when Telangana was a part of Andhra Pradesh the united rulers discriminated in all aspects of welfare and development. It was unfortunate that the Centre was discouraging a progressive and development-oriented State like Telangana, he said.
