Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy has challenged opposition parties to a formal debate in the Legislature regarding his administration's 30-month performance and the previous BRS regime.
- CM challenged opposition to convene special sessions for performance debate.
- Alleged BRS government left Telangana with ₹8.11 lakh crore in debt.
- Committed to completing the SLBC project and Musi River rejuvenation.
- Announced massive ₹90,000 crore investment in road infrastructure.
In a decisive move to counter criticisms from political rivals, Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy has challenged the Opposition to a direct debate on the floor of the Legislature. Addressing a massive public gathering at the NG College grounds in Nalgonda, the Chief Minister expressed readiness to defend his administration's 30-month track record against the claims of the Opposition.
Mr. Reddy invited the Opposition to take the formal route by writing to the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly and the Chairman of the Legislative Council to request special sessions. “They keep asking what the Congress has done. We are ready to convene special sessions. Let us settle in the Assembly who has done what,” the Chief Minister asserted.
Political Attack on BRS
The Chief Minister did not mince words while targeting the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS). He accused the previous administration, led by K. Chandrashekhar Rao (KCR), of leaving the state in a precarious financial position. He highlighted that the state was burdened with a staggering debt of ₹8.11 lakh crore within a decade, a situation he claimed would take a century to rectify.
The Chief Minister's rhetoric suggests a strategic shift toward aggressive accountability, aiming to frame the BRS as a legacy of debt.
BozokMedia analysis shows that by centering the narrative on debt and the 'social boycott' of the previous ruling family, Reddy is attempting to delegitimize the BRS's future political prospects in the state. He further warned that any obstruction to the critical Musi River rejuvenation project would be met with firm government action.
Infrastructure and Development Roadmap
Providing a glimpse into the state's development agenda, Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka emphasized the massive scale of infrastructure spending. He noted that the government has initiated road works worth ₹13,000 crore under the Hybrid Annuity Mode (HAM).
| Project Type/Source | Allocated Amount (Approx.) |
|---|---|
| HAM Road Projects | ₹13,000 Crore |
| CRIF & Budgetary Provisions | ₹23,000 Crore |
| Total Road Infrastructure Investment | ₹90,000 Crore |
The administration is also focused on the Srisailam Left Bank Canal (SLBC) project, with a promise to complete it before the next elections. The collective focus remains on large-scale capital expenditure to drive Telangana's long-term growth.
