Speeches given by Prime Ministers and Chief Ministers after unfurling national flag on the occasion of Independence Day should have sanctity.
These speeches should not be like their routine political speeches given during elections, party meetings or press conferences, where politicians tell lies, make false claims to get votes and win elections.
But Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao seems to have ignored this fact too.
Those who heard KCR’s speech given from the ramparts of historic Golconda Fort as part of Independence Day celebrations today, were shocked to notice KCR telling lies and making false claims on implementing some of his promised schemes by his government.
KCR claimed that his government has implemented Rs 1 lakh crop loan waiver scheme for farmers as promised during polls.
This a blatant lie coming out from the mouth of KCR which everyone knows in Telangana.
It’s nine months since KCR became CM for second term but crop loan waiver has not been implemented so far.
Due to this, over 30 lakh farmers in Telangana could not get fresh crop loans in ongoing kharif season so far as banks denied loans saying that Telangana government did not clear their previous arrears and if farmers want fresh loans, they should clear their previous loan arrears.
Banks even deducted Rythu Bandhu amount of Rs 500 crore credited by state government in the bank accounts of farmers without any notice and adjusted the deducted amount towards payment of arrears on their own.
With this, KCR’s much-hyped Rythu Bandhu scheme has turned as “Bank Bandhu” scheme, helping banks to recover their dues.
Everyone in Telangana from CM to sarpanch at grass-root level knows this very well, but still, KCR claimed in his I-D speech that his government issued orders waiving off Rs 1 lakh crop loans.
The other ‘lie’ noticed was KCR claiming that his government completed Mission Bhagiratha and all households in Telangana were receiving Mission Bhagiratha water in their homes through taps.
The fact remains that not even 50 per cent of the villages were covered so far and even of the remaining half, most of the households are covered by old water schemes, which are accounted under Mission Bhagiratha now.
