Hyderabad: Union Minister G Kishan Reddy meets families being relocated following Musi river beautification project

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], October 2 : Union Minister G Kishan Reddy met the families who are being relocated as part of the Musi River beautification project.
He met the families from Amberpet Assembly, Musarambagh, Ambedkar Nagar, Tulsinagar, and Krishnanagar and extended support.
Speaking to ANI Reddy said, "These colonies here are around 30-40 years old. The poor people by working hard bought the land and made their houses here. This land was not given to them by the government. Today, Revanth Reddy is talking of big things like the beautification of Musi riverfront and the demolition of the houses here. Earlier, KCR also had said the same thing. I want to tell Revanth Reddy that construct houses, not demolish them, and the Central government will help."
"Telangana did not vote for Congress so their houses are demolished. In last 6 months, there has been a lot of corruption in Telangana. Revanth Reddy is looting money and sending it to Delhi. I warn Revanth Reddy that we will not let them demolish the houses here, we will fight and we are even ready to go to jail," he added.

A Day ago, Bharat Rashtra Samiti (BRS) working president KT Rama Rao launched a sharp criticism against the Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, accusing him of creating chaos and misery for the people of Hyderabad, especially during the festive seasons of Dussehra and Bathukamma.
KTR made these remarks while interacting with victims of the Musi River floods in Tulasi Nagar, Amberpet Constituency. He said that poor people in the area are living in constant fear of their homes being demolished, uncertain of when the government might act.
He alleged that CM Revanth Reddy, out of revenge for not receiving votes from Hyderabad's citizens, is deliberately targeting and demolishing the houses of the poor. He also urged residents to unite in resistance if bulldozers came to demolish their homes, emphasising that they should question the officials about their own families' safety.
Accusing CM Revanth of pushing forward a plan that would harm the poor, KTR demanded to know how the cost of the Musi project had increased tenfold from the Telangana government's initial estimate of Rs 16,000 crores. He stressed that if the project were to go ahead, those affected should receive three times the compensation, job offers, and financial support.
KTR assured the public that his government would not remain silent if such reckless actions continued and promised that the poor would not be harmed.
KTR said, "Musi mein looto, Delhi mein baanto became the corrupt Congress's new slogan." The BRS Chief further reminded Revanth of his pre-election promises, asking whether any of the six guarantees, which were promised to be fulfilled within 100 days, have been implemented.
