Hyderabad: Taking exception to the threat by Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao to jail leaders who level allegations of corruption in irrigation projects, Leader of the Opposition K. Jana Reddy on Friday said that those in responsible positions like the CM should maintain dignity and not threaten political opponents. He added that Congress has doubts over the agreement entered by the CM with Maharashtra.

“Is the agreement with Maharashtra historic or historical blunder is our question. Instead of clarifying this, he threatens to send us to jail. Whoever breaks the law will have to go to jail. Even those in power who break the law have to go to jail,” Mr Reddy said. He said it was wrong on the part of the CM to make disparaging remarks and insult anyone.

“What we say is incorrect and what they say is correct. That is the attitude. What did they say?... DPR is ready and anybody can look at it. Did he not say that?” Mr Reddy questioned.

He said that he had written to irrigation minister T. Harish Rao, the irrigation secretary and the irrigation engineer on June 21, seeking a copy of DPR of irrigation projects, but there was no reply till date.

“I did not get the reply, but he says it is available. People should realise the behaviour of CM. You (journalists) too should analyse the situation,” Mr Reddy added.
