HYDERABAD:  Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao, who is known for hurling high-voltage dialogues at his political rivals in filmy style, on Thursday compared his physique with that of Congress leaders. Then, he tried to explain to people as to how he had made the new State stand first in the entire country, by introducing novel welfare measures, even though he was a very lean person. 

“Unlike the well-built Congress leaders, I am not a tall man with muscular body. I am a lean person with average height. Like me, Finance Minister Etela Rajender too is a very slim and short person. Despite our skinny personalities, Rajender and me are working hard for the betterment of the people,” KCR said.
While addressing a massive public meeting at Indiranagar of Huzurabad Assembly Constituency represented by Finance Minister Rajender, in Karimnagar district, the Chief Minister went ballistic at Congress leaders.

“All these Congress leaders who ignored Telangana on all fronts, are now criticising every decision taken by my government for their selfish political gains. They are unable to see the benefit farmers will get because of Rythu Bandhu scheme. The Congress leaders are picking holes even in this unique welfare measure, introduced nowhere in the entire world,” the CM said.KCR then asked the Congress leaders to examine their conscience whether their attitude towards the “development” being undertaken in the State was right.

“Is any other State in the entire country making efforts to provide potable water to every household by undertaking Mission Bhagiratha like TS? Why are Congress leaders trying to create hurdles in the development of the fledgling State?” he asked.While listing out the welfare schemes and development programmes being implemented across the State by his government, KCR said there was no need for his government to brag about its achievements as every beneficiary was personally enjoying the fruits of government programmes.
