Telangana CM Revanth Reddy Call for a New Sand Policy

In a bid to tackle corruption stemming from the existing sand policy, Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy issued a directive on Thursday to formulate a new policy that aligns with the people’s needs and enhances government revenue.

At a meeting with Mines and Geology officials, the Chief Minister emphasized the urgency of addressing unauthorized sand quarrying and illegal transportation. He urged officials to study policies from neighboring states like Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, and Karnataka to inform the new policy’s framework.

Taking immediate action, Revanth Reddy mandated a 48-hour turnaround for officials to revamp their practices. Subsequently, vigilance and ACB officials would conduct inspections across all districts to curb violations, with strict penalties for offenders. Recent surprise inspections revealed alarming rates of illegal sand transportation, with 25% of checked trucks found to be operating without authorization.

The Chief Minister underscored the need to root out irregularities across the Mines and Geology department, urging officials to seize unauthorized stone crushers and enforce tax regulations on pit excavation. Furthermore, he called for an integrated online system to streamline building permissions and requested a comprehensive report on granite and quarry-related cases for further action.

“Naidu’s Strategic Meeting: Alliance Talks with Amit Shah, Nadda

Telugu Desam Party (TDP) President N. Chandrababu Naidu met Union Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP President J. P. Nadda in the national capital late on Wednesday night to discuss a tripartite electoral alliance for forthcoming simultaneous elections to the Andhra Pradesh Assembly and the Lok Sabha.

Naidu’s Late-Night Meeting with Amit Shah and Nadda for Alliance Discussions

Naidu, who arrived in the national capital in the evening, drove to Amit Shah’s residence for the crucial meeting.

TDP-Jana Sena-BJP Alliance in Focus

The talks are likely to give some clarity over the TDP-Jana Sena-BJP alliance to take on the ruling YSR Congress Party.

The TDP and Jana Sena headed by actor-politician Pawan Kalyan have already announced an electoral alliance.

Jana Sena, a constituent of the BJP-led NDA, has long been trying to rope in the saffron party to join hands with them to defeat the Jagan Mohan Reddy-led YSRCP.

TDP’s Attempt to Revive Alliance with BJP

Naidu and Pawan Kalyan already had a few rounds of talks for seat-sharing and were reported to have reached a broad consensus. The TDP, which had snapped ties with the BJP in 2018, evinced interest in reviving the alliance after suffering a crushing defeat in the 2019 elections.

BJP’s Reluctance and Pressure Mounting

However, the BJP had been cold to Naidu’s overtures as the YSRCP had maintained friendly ties with the Modi government and extended support to it in the Parliament in passing several key bills. With only a couple of months to go before the elections, the pressure was mounting on the BJP leadership to decide on the alliance.

State BJP’s Preference for TDP-Jana Sena Alliance

Most of the state BJP leaders are in favor of an alliance with the TDP-Jana Sena combine. BJP State President D. Purandeswari, who is the sister-in-law of Naidu, had recently submitted a report to the party’s central leadership on the feedback gathered from members of the party’s state executive on the alliance.

Speculation Surrounding Naidu’s Meeting with Amit Shah and Nadda

Chandrababu Naidu had met Amit Shah and Nadda in June last year. The meeting had triggered speculations of the two parties reviving their alliance as it was Naidu’s first meeting with Amit Shah since 2018 when the TDP pulled out of the NDA.

Telangana CM Joins Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra in Jharkhand

Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy participated in the “Manipur to Mumbai Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra” today, held in Ranchi, Jharkhand. During the event, he elucidated to Congress leaders the preparations undertaken by the Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, emphasizing the implementation of two key initiatives: free bus travel for women and an increase in the Rajiv Arogyasri limit from Rs. 5 lakh to Rs. 15 lakh, as stated in an official announcement.

Request for Sonia Gandhi’s Candidacy

Furthermore, Rahul Gandhi was solicited to implore Congress leader Sonia Gandhi to contest from Telangana in the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections. The Chief Minister was accompanied by Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Vikramarka and State Minister Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy. Presently, the yatra, which has traversed five states predominantly by bus, is stationed in Jharkhand. Notably, the newly formed government under Champai Soren successfully navigated a floor test in the Jharkhand Assembly on Monday.

Alliance Triumph Amid Political Turmoil

Addressing the alliance’s triumph in the floor test, Rahul Gandhi criticized the BJP, alleging the party’s anti-tribal stance. He remarked, “Hemant Soren ji articulated a poignant sentiment in the Assembly today, ‘When we emerged from the forest and sat beside them, their clothes got soiled.’ This sentiment encapsulates the anguish of the entire tribal community. The BJP is evidently unwilling to accept the presence of a tribal Chief Minister in the state. Today, Jharkhand has sent a resounding message to the nation that the power of the people cannot be quashed by intimidation. This victory signifies unity among the impoverished and the tribal populace, and I extend my congratulations to all.”

Political Dynamics in Jharkhand

Jharkhand witnessed a brief spell of political turmoil subsequent to the arrest of former Chief Minister Hemant Soren by the Enforcement Directorate on Wednesday evening, following seven hours of interrogation. Champai Soren, a senior JMM leader, was subsequently sworn in as Chief Minister on Friday afternoon. It is noteworthy that the Congress is a coalition partner in the ruling alliance of the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), alongside the Rashtriya Janata Dal.

Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra Overview

The “Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra” commenced from Manipur’s Thoubal on January 14, traversing over 6,700 kilometers across 67 days, encompassing 110 districts. This journey spans 6,713 kilometers, covering 100 Lok Sabha constituencies and 337 assembly segments. The yatra is slated to culminate in Mumbai on March 20, following a 67-day itinerary. Serving as a sequel to the ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra,’ wherein Rahul Gandhi traversed over 3,000 kilometers on foot from Kanya Kumari to Srinagar, the Yatra 2.0 adopts a hybrid approach.

Harish Rao Criticizes Chief Minister for Krishna Basin Project Decision

Former Minister T Harish Rao strongly criticized Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy, accusing him of being the most uncivilized and indecent Chief Minister in the country. Speaking at a preparatory meeting for the Mahabubabad parliamentary constituency in Bhadrachalam, Harish Rao expressed his dissatisfaction with the Chief Minister’s communication style, describing it as “barbaric” and “uncultured,” which, according to him, tarnishes Telangana’s image.

Harish Rao urged Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, who often speaks about ethics, to advise Revanth Reddy on his language and behavior. He noted that the Chief Minister’s recent statement, linking the implementation of the six guarantees to Rahul Gandhi becoming the Prime Minister, was impractical. Harish Rao referred to West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s statement that Congress could barely win 40 seats, suggesting that the party coming to power at the Centre was highly unlikely.

The former minister emphasized the power of regional parties in fighting against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Leaders such as Mamata Banerjee, K Chandrashekhar Rao, and Arvind Kejriwal have the strength to challenge the BJP, according to Harish Rao. He asserted that only members of the BRS (Bharatiya Rythu Struggle) would genuinely advocate for Telangana’s interests in Parliament.

Harish Rao accused Chief Minister Revanth Reddy of misleading the public during a meeting in Adilabad by stating incorrect figures about the state’s debt. He pointed out that the previous debt was Rs. 3.87 lakh crore, while Revanth Reddy claimed it was Rs. 7 lakh crore. Harish Rao demanded an explanation for how the government incurred Rs. 14,000 crore in debt in less than two months.

The former minister warned that if the government did not implement the crop loan waiver before the notification of Parliament elections, the people would teach the party a lesson. He also criticized the Congress government for handing over projects in the Krishna basin to the Centre, potentially leading to water problems in the state.

The meeting was attended by MPs Vaddiraju Ravichandra and M Kavitha, MLC T Madhusudhan, MLA Dr T Venkat Rao, ex-MLA R Kantha Rao, and other party members.

BRS Leader Harish Rao Criticizes Congress Over Unfulfilled Promises

Siddipet MLA says Congress should seek votes only after implementing poll guarantees

Bhongir, Telangana: BRS leader and Siddipet MLA T Harish Rao on Friday launched a scathing attack on the Congress government in Telangana, accusing it of failing to implement its six poll promises. Speaking at a party meeting in Bhongir, Rao described the Congress’s victory in the recent Assembly elections as a “speed breaker” for BRS and vowed to fight for the fulfillment of the guarantees.

Key points of Harish Rao’s criticism:

  • Broken promises: Rao pointed out that the Congress has not kept its word on crucial issues like releasing the TSPSC Group-I notification, waiving crop loans, and increasing Aasara pensions.
  • Impatience and mismanagement: He accused Congress leaders of making “bombastic promises” to secure votes and then exhibiting “impatience” due to their inability to deliver.
  • Examples of alleged failures: Rao cited comments by a Congress minister against a local official who asked about a key agricultural scheme and the delay in disbursing Aasara pensions as evidence of the government’s mismanagement.
  • Concerns about agriculture and water: He criticized the Congress for freezing the amount allocated for the Dalit Bandhu scheme and expressed concerns about the impact of handing over dams to the Krishna River Management Board on water availability for irrigation and drinking purposes.
  • Allegations of financial mismanagement: Rao accused the Congress of inflating the state’s debt by Rs 3.13 lakh crore and taking on Rs 15,000 crore in loans within two months of coming to power.
  • Denial of BJP-BRS alliance: He rejected claims of a secret understanding between BJP and BRS, highlighting that BRS defeated several prominent BJP leaders in the Assembly elections.

Rao’s call to action:

He urged BRS leaders and members to educate the public about the Congress’s alleged failures and demanded that the government fulfill its poll promises before seeking votes in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

Other attendees:

Suryapet MLA G Jagadish Reddy, Zilla Parishad Chairman Alimineti Sandeep Reddy, Bhongir former MLA Pylla Shaker Reddy, and BRS district president K Ramakrishna Reddy were also present at the meeting.

Overall, Harish Rao’s speech presents a strong critique of the Congress government’s performance and aims to mobilize BRS cadres for future political challenges.

BJP Leader Questions Congress inaction against IAS officers

In a press conference on Tuesday, BJP state secretary M Raghunandan Rao raised a pertinent question regarding the Congress government’s apparent reluctance to take action against senior IAS officers facing allegations of irregularities during the previous regime. Rao pointed out that despite serious accusations leveled against these officers, the Congress government has yet to initiate any actions against them.

The BJP leader criticized Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy and other senior Congress leaders, accusing them of making strong statements against these IAS officers when they were in opposition. Now, however, when the time has come to address the allegations, there seems to be a notable silence from the ruling party.

Raghunandan Rao’s statements underscore the political dynamics surrounding accountability and governance, with the BJP pressing for transparency and action against officials implicated in alleged irregularities during the previous administration.
