T'gana govt should convene assembly on public issues: Kishan Reddy

The Central Government and the State Government have assumed office around the same time. The Centre conducted the budget session of the Parliament, got the budget passed and is moving ahead on the path of progress.

The state government should not delay the budget session now, Telangana BJP President and MLA G Kishan Reddy told reporters here. He claimed that the TRS Government releasing about 25 per cent of the total amount towards farm loan waiver amounts to deceiving the farmers.

TRS had promised to waive all farm loans up to Rs 1 lakh, he said. BJP would take up an agitation for loan waiver in the first week of October and try to take along other parties for the purpose, Reddy added.
