The AP CM Chandrababu Naidu is still trying to persuading the Centre to grant the sops that were promised to the state in the AP Reorganization Bill-2014 and also by the NDA government itself, despite having strong relations with the central government and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. However, so far nothing was granted except an uninterrupted power supply pilot project to the state.

 

In this context, one would expect Telangana CM KCR would put more efforts to improve his relations with the central government to get its help to his pet projects. However, he has shown no interest to improve relations with the Centre, instead he used criticize the NDA government for showing step mother attitude towards the Telangana state over various issues.

 

However, when he softens his tone and start showering praises on the Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the state BJP unit and it’s off shoots like Vishwa Hindu Parishat hardly hitting at him and his government. Former president of the BJP Indrasena Reddy strongly criticized CM KCR for constructing a Pylon for his ambitious water grid project.

 

Speaking to media at Choutuppal in Nalgonda district he said “The CM KCR’s idea of constructing a pylon to his pet project appears to be preparing a coffin before death. I think he is constructing it because he fears that some else name will be written on it, if he couldn’t complete the water grid project during his term. So, he is installing the Pylon even before commencement of the project to ensure his name is written across it. Poor people in the state are badly suffering due to his lack of experience in ruling the state.”

 

Praveen Togadia, the hardcore Hindu leader of VHP, who came to Hyderabad to launch the official website of his VHP of the city at Shamshabad, said “I think Hindus, especially poor and lower middle class Hindus are being ignored by the TRS government. CM KCR appears to be giving more importance to Muslims than Hindus. Introducing reservation system on religious grounds is a fine example for it. His ruling is just reflecting the Nizam ruling. Once, people of the state have fought with Nizam to free themselves from his clutches. It seems the time has come to start a fresh fight against KCR government to free themselves.”

 

Whether their criticism has any impact on him or not CM KCR should put more efforts to improve his relations with NDA government.
