HYDERABAD: Union minister and state BJP president G. Kishan Reddy on Monday accused the Telangana state government of attempting to wash its hands off the management of the Dharani portal, claiming that the portal’s management was controlled by a foreign company.
“The BRS government and Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao’s failure has affected 75 lakh farmers in the state. Instead of assuring farmers and common citizens that their lands and earnings accrued through hard work are safe from illegal occupation and unscrupulous elements, the government is hiding behind the claims that a private company runs Dharani,” he said.
Kishan Reddy said, “The buck stops with the government of Telangana state and it is answerable for the current fiasco regarding issues plaguing the Dharani portal. To pin the blame onto others or to hide behind others shows moral and ethical bankruptcy of the BRS government.”
He also said that data privacy is at stake, and it is the responsibility of the Telangana government to acknowledge the problems and rectify the issues.
“The BRS government’s inability to take corrective steps have made things worse. On one hand, the Government of India, under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, is providing hassle-free property certificates and title deeds to the poor through SWAMITVA yojana, while the BRS government in Telangana is continuously flailing and failing,” Kishan Reddy said.
He said that since the BRS came to power nine years ago, it “emerged as an undemocratic, tyrannical force which continues to perpetuate a Nizami mindset. Like the Nizam, this BRS government believes in power and authority without any responsibility. This arrogance is the root cause of all issues that Telangana state faces today”.
