Bjp govt. is average and i don't think it is doing any remarkable work on economic front. It seems either he doesn't know what to do or he is just incompetent.

How the cash-for-vote case leaves Telangana govt with egg on its face


Hyderabad: Has the cash-for-vote case fallen flat on the face of the Telangana government? The Supreme Court’s rejection of the appeal of the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) of Telangana seeking the cancellation of bail granted by the High Court of Hyderabad to TDP MLA A Revanth Reddy has delivered a body blow to the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) and also to its government.


Andhra Pradesh CM Chandrababu Naidu and Telangana CM K Chandrasekhar Rao.



The denouement of the cash-for-vote soap opera, which entertained the people of both states of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, cannot be trivialised. But, surely the state’s demeanour is giving rise to innumerable doubts whether its moves in this case have been legally diligent and politically dexterous.
The TRS supremo Kalvakuntla Chandrashekar Rao, who appeared to have won the battle in its round one, doesn’t seem to stand ground any longer, what with the Telangana state’s arguments which are as strong as the weakest link in the script of the "assault serial".

The war of words between Chandrasekhar Rao and Chandrababu Naidu over the issue has surely taken the already strained relation between the two leaders to a breaking point. Now the bitterness between the duo stretched to such an extent that they do not see even eye to eye. KCR skipped the dinner hosted by Governor ESL Narasimhan in the honour of President Pranab Mukherjee, while Chandrababu Naidu would stay away from a similar party scheduled soon, as he will be on a foreign tour.

Initially, the TDP camp was certainly worried over its own credibility ebbing consequent upon the "leak' of a video footage in which Revanth Reddy was seen doling out wads of currency and also a plethora of promises on behalf of his "boss". This triggered the arrest of Reddy. Though TDP launched a broadside against KCR and the TRS for "falsely implicating" the legislator in the case, its argument remained feeble.

Once the audio tapes consisting of a conversation purportedly between none other than Chandrababu Naidu himself and Anglo-Indian MLA in the Telangana Assembly Elvis Stephenson were "leaked", the TDP appeared as if it was fighting a losing battle.

The notice issued to Satthupalli TDP MLA S Venkata Veeraiah, who “fled” to AP, and the questioning of another TDP leader Vem Narender Reddy really pushed the TDP to a corner, if not asphyxiated its rank and file.

Then came the forensic examination of the tapes and video footage, solemn statements under Section 164 by the complainant Stephenson and the three accused persons, including MLA Revanth Reddy. The dismissal of the bail plea of the accused by the ACB court has fomented the acrimony between the two political parties.

Ministers on both sides went to the extent of hurling invectives targeting Naidu and KCR, washing the proverbial dirty linen, not only in the TV talk shows, but even in public meetings and at the slightest of opportunities.

The biggest blunder on the part of the TRS in the scheme of things, if they can be called so, is the petition filed by Stephenson seeking the recusal of a judge hearing the appeal of one of the accused, Jerusalem Mathaiah, who is “at large” according to Telangana police. Interestingly, the high court directed the police not to arrest Mathaiah for four weeks.

Disposing of the petition seeking his recusal, justice Shiva Sankar Rao reprimanded the petitioner for his prayer and directed the police to file a case of contempt of court and initiate proceedings against Stephenson with the permission of the Chief Justice of the High Court of Hyderabad. The judgement came this way, in spite of the Telangana Advocate-General Ramakrishna Reddy “advising” the judge to “oblige” the appeal of Stephenson, though it was not mandatory.

The grant of bail to Revanth Reddy after one month of imprisonment, though not unexpected, has come as a rude shock to the TRS regime. The subsequent “victory rally” of Revanth Reddy and his inflammatory speech against the chief minister were treated as “cognizable offences” by the Telangana Police and seven cases of violation of law and several other criminal charges were slapped on the TDP MLA.

Is this a strategic move or wreaking vengeance owing to anger triggered by “disappointment” will be known in the days to come. But, clearly, KCR appeared to have lost the game to Chandrababu Naidu when the matter reached the precincts of judiciary.

The egging of Telangana Advocates Association on to the Centre with a demand to carve out a separate high court for the State of Telangana at this point in time is seen as a “calculated risk” taken by the TRS leadership, albeit, from behind the scenes, that boomeranged.

The acerbic observations made by a senior office-bearer of the association about Chandrababu Naidu being a “great influencer” may have had its backlash too on the outcome of the bitterest battle between the TDP and the TRS so far.

The redoubtable Chandrababu Naidu’s scheme of depicting the [HASHTAG]#CashforVote[/HASHTAG] case as problem simmering between the two States of AP and Telangana was a superhit, even though the KCR Administration tried to annul the same by trying to impale only the criminality involved in the infamous cash-for-vote case.
Now will the Telangana government be able to serve notices on Chandrababu Naidu to seek his voice sample and can the TRS think of touching him even with a bargepole? It is anybody’s guess.

That farmer is a Seema-Andhra Kamma agent who is also a TDP supporter.
Of course he can't be a Reddy or a YSRCP supporter because.....um..

JAI TELANGANA!!!

KCR also told him to shut up & had the police take him away, I hope he is all right

As I said @Echo_419 , if you remember that 'facts about TRS & KCR in the exam' link. This man is determined to build a personality cult around himself & his family
 
So guys look at what's happening all over the country today - This guy Modi has completely betrayed as all. Pseudo nationalist Bharatiya Jumla Party hasn't done anything for us virat Hindus either. Am sick of defending fallacies of this directionless spineless machinery called NDA.

@Georgeclark This is why KCR isn't giving more money. He is more interested in wasting money on Populist & welfare schemes & on vote-bank politics measures(26 crore for Ramzan-- Ghmc Elections) & blaming TDP, Chandrababu Naidu or anybody with an Andhra connection when he discovers he has none. -_- .

& all this is happening despite TG being the second richest state in India (in KCR's own words) -_- .

Reserve Bank of India move starves Telangana of cash


Hyderabad: The Telangana government has plunged into its worst financial crisis after the Reserve Bank of India diverted Rs 1,274 crore from its account to the income-tax department to pay I-T arrears of AP Beverages Corporation last week. Unless the Centre comes to its rescue, the government will be not in a position to pay salaries for employees next month.

Union finance minister Arun Jaitley had assured that the money would be refunded to the state government in two days, but it has not happened so far. Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao had rushed IT minister K.T. Rama Rao and chief secretary Rajiv Sharma to New Delhi last week after the RBI action. The team told Mr Jaitley that the state government was not in a position to meet its day-to-day expenses following the RBI move.

This comes on top of the deficit crossing Rs 2,500 crore in the first three months of 2015-16. Finance officials have sounded a red alert and urged the government to take urgent steps to avert the crisis. In desperation last week, the TS government diverted Rs 500 crore NREGA funds, provided by the Centre to pay rural workers, to its treasury department to meet its daily needs.
HYD_2015-07-06_maip4_11.jpg


It diverted another Rs 300 crore belonging to the land regularisation scheme, lying in the accounts of tehsildars, even before it was done under the payment category. This amount was paid by nearly 30,000 applicants as the first instalment for regularisation of encroached government land in March.

The state earned a revenue of Rs 7,261 crore in April and May and another Rs 2,000 crore was mobilised through loans. Against this, the revenue expenditure was Rs 8,500 crore. If the planend spending is included, the figure crossed Rs 10,921 crore, resulting in a revenue deficit of Rs 1,220 crore. This deficit increased to nearly Rs 2,500 crore after RBI diverted the Rs 1,274 crore to I-T department.

“The first challenge before the government is to pay Rs 2,200 crore to banks as the second instalment of the crop loan waiver scheme. The kharif season is in full swing and farmers are awaiting bank loans. Banks will halt disbursal of loans if the government does not pay up,” said a senior official.

AITUC activists burning an effigy of Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao at Narayanguda Crossroads in the city on Monday



A total of nine municipal corporations and 53 municipalities with 40,000 employees are participating in the stir. Apparently annoyed by the stir of the employees, Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao directed Home Minister Naini Narsimha Reddy and Finance Minister Eatala Rajender to talk to them and resolve the issue.

Home Minister appealed to the GHMC JAC to withdraw the strike and discharge duties. Addressing a meeting after holding a discussion along with Minister E Rajender and JAC leaders, the Home Minister said the government would take a decision on their demands. The demands would be put before Chief Minister for a final call on Tuesday, he said. Keeping Ramzan festival in view, the staff of the GHMC should attend their duties to remove garbage before it piled up, he appealed.


Chandrashekar Rao will take a final call on the demands including that of regularisation of outsourcing employees. When asked, Reddy said that the Cabinet had to take a policy decision on regularisation demand of outsourcing staff. But the municipal workers refused to call off the strike till they get a clear time-bound assurance from the Chief Minister. The two Ministers will hold another round of meeting on Tuesday afternoon.

Meanwhile, the AITUC leaders demanded hike in their salaries on par with the permanent employees according to the 10th PRC fitment. They also reminded the Chief Minister that Hyderabad could not be made a world class city without the help of sanitation workers. They further said the GHMC was not even providing proper tools to work.

BMS leader Shanker said that the government was discriminating the municipal workers from others and looking down at them. “Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao who compared us with Gods and saluted us is now ignoring us. We are ready to call off the strike once the government passes a GO on salary hike and permanent employment,” he said. Labour Minister Naini Narasimha Reddy held discussion with them on June 20.

The Municipal Administration Department officials also held talks twice on June 22 and June 23 and sought 10 days time to address their demands. However, there was no response from them so far, he pointed out.AITUC Greater Hyderabad unit extended its support by burning effigy of Chandrashekar Rao at Narayanguda junction. Seven unions, which include CITU, FTU, BMS, HMS, IFTU, AITUC and TSTU served the strike notice on July 7.

@indushek @itachiii @jbgt90 @all hyderabadis

I wonder what will happen to Swachh Telangana, Swachh Hyderabad if the strikers refuse to back down...

I think KCR could use such a moment for publicity & come out & clean the roads himself :) . That could get his mind of the MPTC elections in TG & Revanth Reddy's bail :)
Add to that Modi will tag & praise him on Twitter.
