I have already completed one round of electioneering in all villages and urban areas. The response has been encouraging. People are happy with the welfare schemes introduced by the TRS government and development witnessed in the past four years. They are upbeat over the partial manifesto announced by Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao. They are confident that only Rao can strive hard to improve the State. They have reposed faith in me as well.

As many as 300 km of road network was laid as against 450 km of stretches required to provide connectivity to 30 habitations deprived of the basic facility from 2014 to 2018. Works on 31 bridges were taken up, improving connectivity to several villages. Similarly, inter-State bridge being erected across Pranahita between Gudem and Aheri of Maharashtra will be completed within two or three months. Besides transportation, the education sector was bettered with establishing eight residential schools. Bejjur primary centre was upgraded to a 30-bed hospital, while community health centre of Kaghaznagar town was converted into a 100-bed facility. Two new mandals, Chintalamanepalli and Penchikalpet, and Kaghaznagar revenue division were created for simplifying administration.

Also, 3,000 new electric connections were provided to farmers in the last four years as against 3,800 connections given in the past 60 years.

— Which areas you are going to focus on if re-elected

I will focus on industrial growth for creating jobs to locals if elected again. I will try to secure another industry in place of Sirsilk factory which was shutdown.

Ashirwada Sabha : Eatala exhorts people to vote for TRS

Most of the villagers, which remained backward when the State was united, are witnessing enormous development now after the formation of separate Telangana, according to caretaker Finance Minister Eatala Rejender here on Friday.

Rajender was participating in the ‘Ashirwada Sabha’ organised by the villagers of Shalapalli, Indiranagar, Manthinipalli and Peddapapaiahpalli villages at private function hall here.

Speaking on the occasion, Rajender said that it was the pink flag which always made efforts for the betterment of the downtrodden. Earlier everyone thought that it would be great if Rs. 50,000 worth of works were sanctioned for the development of their respective villages.

But, after the formation of TRS government every village was developed. Each village secured nearly Rs 5 crore for development works. The construction works of Kaleshwaram project would be completed by next rainy season and there would be plenty of water for irrigation needs.

The caretaker Minister said, “I will be like the elder son of the family and will look after everyone and will try to solve everyone’s problems. It gives immense pleasure for me if everyone lives happily and peacefully and I am striving for that.”

TRS is the only party which can understand the problems of the people. Everything was provided by the TRS party to all sections of people. Kalayana Lakshmi, Shaadi Mubarak, KCR kits, Rythu Bandhu and Rythu Bhima schemes were introduced for welfare of the people.

If people would bless the TRS party for the second term by casting their valuable vote, many more welfare schemes would be introduced for the welfare of the people.

ZPTC Molguri Sarojan, Market Committee Chairman Adavalli Kondal Reddy, TRS leaders Gopu Komura Reddy, Polampalli Srinivas Reddy, Sirimalle Raju, Dr Ilaiah, Poreddy Dayakar Reddy, Manthini Ravider, Manthini Srinivas and Sigalatha were present.

ChandraBabu Naidu must learn human values, says TRS

At Telangana Bhavan, MLC Karne Prabhakar pointed out that the Telangana Chief Minister took a humanitarian view and ordered for a funeral with State honours for Harikrishna.

TRS leaders on Friday advised TDP president and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu to learn some essential lessons in humanity. Refuting his allegations, they wondered why Naidu was making an issue out of Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao’s phone call to YSR Congress Party president YS Jaganmohan Reddy extending wishes for his recovery following the attack on him but kept silent when similar courtesy was extended to TDP senior leader N Harikrishna following his death.

Animal Husbandry Minister Talasani Srinivas Yadav condemned the statement of Chandrababu Naidu who found fault with Chandrashekhar Rao, Minister K T Rama Rao, MP K Kavitha and other TRS leaders condemning the attack on Jagan Mohan Reddy at Visakhapatnam airport on Thursday. He said Naidu was becoming impatient and politicising every issue. “Tomorrow, Naidu might even allege that Jagan injured himself in full public view for sympathy,” he opined.

After visiting Jagan Mohan Reddy at City Neuro Centre hospital on Friday, Srinivas Yadav asked: “What is wrong if the Governor enquires with the State DGP about the attack on the Opposition leader? Naidu should not forget that Governor ESL Narasimhan is still the Governor of Andhra Pradesh as well,” he pointed out.

At Telangana Bhavan, MLC Karne Prabhakar pointed out that the Telangana Chief Minister took a humanitarian view and ordered for a funeral with State honours for Harikrishna. “On similar humanitarian grounds, the Chief Minister spoke to Jagan Mohan Reddy to inquire about his health condition and wished him a speedy recovery. But Naidu who did not object to State honours for Harikrishna is now attributing political motives to such gesture,” he added. He said that Chandrashekhar Rao was giving utmost priority to human values, unlike Naidu who was only interested in economic relations.

TRS State Secretary Gattu Ramachander Rao felt that one cannot expect human values from a person like Naidu who was responsible for the death of his own father-in-law and a tall leader like N T Rama Rao. He said Naidu had no values at all, as the latter entered into an alliance with his arch-rival for political mileage.

TRS a committed party, says Diwakar Rao

Ours is a corruption-free and committed party. No one can fault governance of the TRS, says Diwakar.

TRS candidate from Mancherial Assembly constituency Nadipelli Diwakar Rao said around 50,000 people belonging to the constituency had benefited from various welfare schemes implemented by the TRS government in the last four years.

Speaking to the media here on Thursday, Diwakar said Aasara pension amount was going to be raised, besides offering unemployment allowance to jobless if the TRS was voted to power again. He added that the newly formed State had seen a remarkable growth and attracted investments worth thousands of crores.

The former legislator listed out some of the development works taken up by him during his tenure: Bridge across the Godavari from Mancherial to Anthargaon, Widening of Mandamarri-Mancherial road, flyover between High-tech City and Hamaliwada of the town and beautification of Mancherial town, all costing nearly Rs 300 crore.

“We have developed the constituency on many fronts. No party can find an irregularity to criticise our performance. Ours is a corruption-free and committed party. No one can fault governance of the TRS,” he stated, adding that he had told the police to book cases against 18 persons for grabbing land. He exuded confidence that voters would elect him as a legislator for the fourth time and help the party form the government.

The candidate further said youngsters were being attracted to the TRS and were joining the party in large numbers from the recent past.

He, earlier, organised a door-to-door campaign in Itikyala of Luxettipet and requested electors to cast their votes to him. He criticised the Congress for faulting the TRS schemes and said people would teach the opposition party a lesson in the coming elections.

Former MLC Laxman Naradasu, Mancherial TRS party in-charge A Nageshwar Rao, municipal chairperson M Vasundhara and many others were present.

Telangana Elections: Vote for irrigation water, don’t accept liquor, says TRS

Telangana will head for polls on December 7. Counting of votes will happen on December 11.

In a scathing attack, the ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) has accused the Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu-led Telugu Desam Party (TDP) for pumping in huge amounts of money into the Telangana Assembly election campaign in a bid to woo voters.

According to a report by The Times of India, TRS leader and state irrigation minister T Harish Rao urged voters not to get lured by money spent on them.

“Do you want that liquor or sufficient water for irrigation for the constituency?” Rao asked during a road show in Nagarkurnool Assembly constituency on October 24.

With nearly one month left for the elections, campaign has gained momentum in the state. While TRS is looking to retain power, opposition parties are leaving no stone unturned to wrest India’s youngest state from K Chandrashekar Rao-led party.

The TRS leader further sent out a message to voters, to expect any expenses on their fuel and food by TRS candidates to get their votes.

He appealed to the residents of Nagarkurnool to vote for sitting MLA Marri Janardhan Reddy. In his tenure, Reddy has proved his worth and therefore the people should work for his victory, said Rao.

Rao blamed TDP for working against the interests of Telangana. N Chandrababu Naidu had objected to Palamuru Ethipothala project on the grounds that Telangana would draw the required water from Srisailam, Rao claimed.

Telangana will head for polls on December 7. Counting of votes will happen on December 11.

Remind people of TRS’ welfare schemes: KCR

TRS president and chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao on Sunday asked party candidates to remind people about the benefits they got from the welfare schemes introduced during the four-andhalf-year TRS rule.

At a meeting at Telangana Bhavan, KCR gave details of all the beneficiaries of various schemes constituency-wise to all candidates. There are approximately 60,000 beneficiaries in each constituency and the TRS is considering them as a strong vote bank.

KCR asked candidates to visit every home during their campaigning to not only remind beneficiaries about what they got but also explain to the electorate about the partial manifesto that he had already declared.

Deputy CM Kadiam Srihari who briefed the media after the three-hour meeting said that by the end of the month, KCR would address two public meetings. . While KCR will try to cover all assembly constituencies after that until the campaigning time ends, he will focus mainly on constituencies where the Mahakutami thinks it has a strong presence. The CM’s schedule of public meetings will be announced on Monday, Srihari said.

Elect TRS for double bonanza: Durgam Chinnaiah

TRS candidate from Bellampalli Assembly constituency Durgam Chinnaiah urged voters to elect the TRS if they wanted to have double benefits of welfare schemes and fruits of development. He was accorded a grand welcome by locals while electioneering in different localities of the coal belt town on Wednesday.

Chinnaiah said that the amount of social security pensions was enhanced from Rs 1,000 to Rs 2,016 per month and that the jobless would be offered unemployment allowance of Rs 3,000 every month. “If you want to get double benefits of welfare schemes, the TRS must come to power. Similarly, the State will undergo remarkable development if the party is elected again,” he said.

Later, the former legislator invited 50 youngsters and ex-BJP mandal president Chandragiri Srinivas into the TRS fold at a programme held in the town. He said that many were joining the pink party after being impressed by its governance in the past four years and its innovative schemes. He hoped that the party would be able to secure power for the second time with the help of the schemes and development works.

The nominee lambasted the Congress for uniting with the TDP and for stalling development works by approaching courts. He said that the people would teach a lesson to the Prajakutami and give mandate to the TRS in the coming elections. He added that only TRS was committed to the growth of the newly-created Telangana State as it had achieved a separate State after struggling for 14 years.

Bellampalli Agriculture Market Committee Chairman Narasingam, Municipality vice-chairman Satyanarayana, TRS town president Narayana, counselors Laxmi, Sudarshan, TRSV district president Shravan, local leaders of the party Gelli Rajalingu, Mahesh, Shankar, Rajeshwar, Yousuf, Vasu, Ramulu and Srinivas were among the many who attended the event.

TRS will retain power: KTR

He pointed out that whether it was the GHMC, Warangal by-election or other polls, people of the State had been extending support to TRS since 2014.

Industries and IT Minister KT Rama Rao on Wednesday said Telangana State would witness a ‘noisy revolution’ on December 11, the day of counting after polling to 119 Assembly seats on December 7 that will see the TRS retaining power in the State with a thumping majority.

The Minister was reacting to TPCC president Uttam Kumar Reddy’s comment claiming that the State was witnessing a ‘silent revolution.’ “There is no such silent revolution in the State, and the only revolution that the State will see will be the people’s celebrations on December 11, when all the Congress leaders will be proved wrong,” Rama Rao said, participating in Praja Aashirvada Sabha held in Medipalli of Jagtial district.

He pointed out that whether it was the GHMC, Warangal by-election or other polls, people of the State had been extending support to TRS since 2014.

“TRS will capture power in the State again by winning 100 Assembly seats and Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao will continue as Chief Minister even after December 11. There is no doubt about this,” he said.

Stating that he could proudly declare that KCR will be the Chief Minister again in the next term, Rama Rao challenged the Congress leaders to announce its Chief Ministerial candidate. “Ten leaders will take turns as Chief Minister for the next five years if the Congress is voted to power,” he said, adding that KCR will be Chief Minister till the agriculture sector becomes a festive activity and the objective of Golden Telangana is achieved.

Terming the Congress-TDP alliance as unethical, the Minister said it was a great insult to the late Chief Minister NT Rama Rao, who founded the TDP to primarily oppose the Congress. Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu had shown his true colours by writing 30 letters to the Central government to stall construction of Kaleshwaram, Sita Rama and Palamuru lift irrigation projects, he said, while Congress filed a number of cases in the court against the construction of irrigation projects after taking fingerprints of dead persons.

Supply of 24 hours power supply to agriculture sector and construction of irrigation projects would be stalled if the Prajakutami was voted to power in the State, he warned, and said it was up to the people to decide whether to elect KCR, who has been striving hard for the uplift of all sections of society, or the Congress-TDP alliance which had made the people suffer for 67 years.

With a view to improve the lives of the poor, the TRS government focused more on vital issues like irrigation projects, 24 hours power supply to the agriculture sector, drinking water, pensions to different sections of people, among other initiatives. KCR has also decided to waive power bills of SC and ST communities up to 100 units, he said.

Stating that Medipalli area had been neglected in the last 67 years, Rama Rao said that Medigadda and Kathalapur areas would turn into another Konaseema once the Kaleshwaram project is completed. It would be completed in the coming six months, he said, adding that water under Mission Bhagiratha will reach every household by December 7.
