Telangana Rashtra Samithi’s MP from Nizamabad Kalvakunta Kavitha has changed her tune on the Central budget within 24 hours, supposedly after her father, chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao pulled her up for supporting the budget.
Kavitha, who is desperate to join the Narendra Modi cabinet some way or the other, was the only TRS leader to make some positive comments on the Union budget, though KCR, finance minister Etela Rajender and all other senior TRS leaders refrained from making any comment, since they do not want to get exposed on their stand towards the NDA government.
Following a reprimand from her father, Kavitha gave a different statement a day later. She said the union budget was disappointing and it offered nothing for Telangana, the country’s youngest state.
She said Jaitely in his budget speech announced All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) for Jharkhand and Gujarat but there was no such announcement for Telangana. The budget should have focused more on farmers.
Another TRS MP Konda Vishweshwar Reddy found fault with the Centre’s move to merge railway budget with the union budget. He said doing away with plan and non-plan expenditure details was another defect of the budget. There was no mention of what the states will get, he said.
