Telangana: 'KCR Govt's Corruption Has Spread To Delhi', Says PM Modi In Warangal
Prime Minister Narendra Modi
Prime Minister Narendra Modi today (8 July) laid the foundation stone for various infrastructure projects worth Rs 6100 crore and addressed a public meeting after performing puja at the Bhadrakali temple.
Taking a swipe at the ruling Bharat Rashtra Samiti (BRS) and Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao (KCR), he said “KCR government means the most corrupt government, and now their corruption has spread to Delhi as well, in what is being seen as a reference to KCR's daughter Kavitha who is under scrutiny for her role in the Delhi liquor scam.
“The people of Telangana should note that all these dynasty-run parties have the foundation of corruption”, he added.
Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan, Union Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari, Union Tourism Minister and newly appointed BJP state president G Kishan Reddy, former state president Bandi Sanjay Kumar, and other leaders attended the event.
Among the projects for which PM Modi laid the foundation stone are the four-laning of the 68-kilometre long Karimnagar-Warangal section of NH-563, the 108-kilometre long Mancherial–Warangal section of the Nagpur-Vijayawada Economic Corridor and a Railway wagon manufacturing unit at Kazipet.
The visit is significant as it comes after months of infighting in the state BJP. It also comes at a time when the Congress is resurgent in the state after the victory in Karnataka.
