Former Chief Minister and BRS chief K Chandrasekhar Rao said that he will speak about Telangana’s water rights in view of continuing row over Krishna and Godavari waters between Telugu states, in two days. He said soon after discharging from Yashoda Hospital, where he has been undergoing medical tests for the last three days, he will address a press conference on these issues.
He interacted with several party leaders in the hospital on Friday and discussed prevailing national and state politics for over four and half hours. He especially spent most of his time talking to the leaders about the farmers. Speaking to the leaders who came to greet him, KCR inquired, ‘Are there any plantations in the state? Is it raining? Is water being supplied?’
Several leaders brought to KCR’s attention that farmers in many places are saying that urea is not being supplied. The leaders said that farmers are facing serious difficulties in many places and that the government has almost given up.
Farmers themselves say that such a difficult situation has never happened during the BRS regime, and this time there is a severe shortage of seeds and fertilizers. Some leaders said that the state government is completely neglecting the irrigation sector.
When it came to the discussion about the government’s absurd, meaningless and meaningless argument about Telangana’s rightful share of Krishna and Godavari waters, KCR said that he would respond to it soon and put the facts before the people.
KCR reminded the leaders of the Telangana movement, the formation of a new state, and the challenges faced by the government later. He said that his health was good and that he would be discharged on Saturday if the doctors allowed it. He said that he had to talk about many things and that he would come to the media and speak in a day or two.
