LAYING FOUNDATION FOR 2 BHK SCHEME

Hyderabad: Leader of Opposition in Telangana Legislative Council Mohammed Ali Shabbir on Friday said the Congress party would move a privilege motion against Panchayat Raj Minister K Tarakarama Rao for violation of protocol in laying foundation stones for 2 BHK houses in the city on Thursday.

Addressing a press conference at Congress Legislature Party office here on Friday, he said KTR’s name was prominently displayed on foundation stones. He said KTR was highlighted like a “defacto CM.” "KTR was given preference over Union Labour Minister Bandaru Dattatraya, Deputy Chief Minister Mohammed Mahmood Ali and Home Minister, who is the Hyderabad district in-charge Minister, Naini Narasimha Reddy. He was neither the Housing Minister nor the Minister for Municipal Administration and Urban Development. Then in what capacity, KTR laid the foundation stones for the 2BHK houses," he asked.

Further, he ridiculed KTR's promise of constructing 10,000 units of 2BHK houses in city this year. "From where would the State government get Rs 540 crore to construct the such a large number of houses in just four months. It was just a trick to cheat the people, he said. He wondered how the government can mobilise over Rs. 8,500 crore to construct 1.08 lakh units of 2BHK houses as promised by KTR. Speaking on the issue, Greater Hyderabad Congress president Danam Nagender said the laying of foundation stones for the housing projects without conducting socio-economic survey and without identifying the beneficiaries was completely illegal. He said that the Congress party would bring to the attention of the authorities concerned the issue.
