Addressing the gathering at Telangana Bhavan here, Rama Rao said the Congress promised 420 guarantees, 13 declarations including six prominent guarantees, but failed to fully implement its major commitments. “The Congress promised heaven within 100 days, but delivered hell for last 1,000 days,” he said. Calling the Congress rule as criminal waste, he accused it of turning Telangana into a State marked by destruction and distortion.
He stated that the Congress government accumulated Rs 4.5 lakh crore in debt without completing any new major development projects. He pointed out that the Congress promised Rs 50,000-crore farm loan waiver, but released only around Rs 20,000 crore.Read Political News
