The BRS President and CM KCR delivered a powerful speech at a public meeting in Sircilla today. “I congratulate KTR for the efforts he took in transforming the lives of weavers in Sircilla,” said CM KCR.
He recalled the miserable condition of weavers in Sircilla before Telangana state formation and said that he saw wall messages appealing to the weavers not to commit suicide. From such a situation till now, Sircilla has strongly evolved under the BRS government, he added.
KCR said that the Governments should take the responsibility of creating work for the weavers and hence, the BRS’s Govt initiated the Bathukamma sarees scheme to support the weavers. “But some opposition leaders instigate people to burn these sarees blaming their quality. This is very unfortunate,” said KCR.
KCR expressed confidence that BRS will again form the government and continue to work for the welfare of the weavers community. He added that Sircilla will become another Sholapur in the coming days.
Talking about the improved water conditions in Sircilla, KCR said that he felt happy to see the green fields and continuous flow of water in the region through Upper Maneir.
CM KCR talked about the education institutes that were set up in Sircilla and said that the BRS Government is committed to making Sircilla an educational hub in the coming days.
KCR highlighted the promises from the manifesto and said that the BRS would increase the pension amount from Rs. 2000 to Rs. 5000. And similarly, Rythu Bandhu’s money will also be increased, he said.
Attacking the Congress party and its leadership, KCR said that the Congress leaders would be a threat to the farmer community as they talked about providing only a three-hour power supply to the farmers and removing the Dharani portal.
CM KCR said that the Dharani portal made the lives of the farmers easy by protecting their lands, while Congress would remove Dharani and bring back the VRO system. He added that the lands in Telangana were being sold in lakhs after Telangana Formation.
CM KCR said that the Congress party governed the country for 60 years but failed to give uninterrupted power. He also said that the industries faced problems in operating due to the power crisis and the farmers were dying of snake bites in the fields at night as the current would be supplied in irregular hours.
The BRS President also stated that Prime Minister Modi’s state Gujarat does not give 24-hour power supply while Telangana does. He added that the PM proposed to fix meters to agriculture motors which was rejected by the BRS.
Speaking at the meeting, the BRS Working President KTR highlighted the transformational journey of Sircilla from being a drought-hit region to a water surplus district. He added that the Sircilla water management model was being studied by trainee IAS officers at the Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration in Mussoorie.
KTR said that there were protests demanding a junior college in Sircilla before State formation and now, under the leadership of CM KCR, Sircilla has a medical college, Engineering agricultural college, and also the State’s first KG to PG campus.
KTR said that the Godavari water was now flowing in the fields of Sircilla because of the Kaleshwaram Project. This was possible only because of KCR’s vision for the State, he said.
The BRS President KCR sought the support of the people in the upcoming elections and appealed to make an informed decision before casting their vote.
