Not a single rupee for Telangana; only ‘kursi bachao’ budget: CM Revanth Reddy

“Today's Union Budget shows the attitude of the Centre towards Telangana. Even though we visited Delhi many times and met the PM, home minister and other top leaders, justice was not done. We requested to release funds to Telangana. When PM visited Adilabad, I received him and said that PM Modi is like an elder brother and should ensure Telangana gets its rights. I am not questioning the funds given to Andhra Pradesh...Not a single rupee was given for metro, RRR road or others (in Telangana). Even ITIR corridor project was not mentioned in the central budget. Nothing related to Telangana development was thought about in the Union Budget. I think that PM is thinking that Telangana is not part of Viksit Bharat. This budget is only 'kursi bachao' budget. The budget is only to save his chair,” says Telangana CM Revanth Reddy.
