T Harish Rao seeks apology from state congress

Hyderabad: Irrigation minister T. Harish Rao called Cong-ress leaders a “frustrated lot” for taking on Governor E.S.L Narasimhan, who had praised the TRS government for the quick progress on the Kaleswaram project.

Speaking to mediapersons in Manthani in erstwhile Karimnagar district, Mr Rao said the Congress governments had made no progress on the Pranahita Chevella scheme for eight years. 

He demanded Congress leaders who spoke against the Governor to offer Mr Narasimhan an unconditional apology.

Referring to the allegations of corruption in the Kaleswaram project, he said the government was not following the Congress policy of providing mobilisisation advances to contractors to get commissions.
