Hyderabad: KCR even deceives Gods, says Laxman

Hyderabad: Telangana BJP on Wednesday flagged off ambulance vehicles to the famous Samamakka Saralamma Jatara (festival) to provide treatment to devotees free of cost.

Speaking on the occasion, party State unit president Dr K Laxman said that the State government failed to provide basic facilities to devotees at the Asia's largest festival. Laxman reminded that Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao had promised to provide Kumbha Mela type facilities to people visiting the Jatara, and added that KCR is not only deceiving people of the State but also deceiving gods and goddesses by making false promises. He said that the BJP deputed a 25-member medical team to provide treatment to the devotees.

The CM had also promised to construct and develop the temple including basic facilities, measures to curb pollution, providing sufficient drinking water during the festival. But he did not keep his promise, he alleged.

But in the state budget the government had shown spending Rs 98 crore for providing facilities. It is astonishing to note that four District Collectors have been transferred in a span of 30 days just to hand over contracts as per the TRS government whims and fancies, he alleged.
