Rangareddy (Telangana) [India], October 23 : Union Minister of State for Home Affairs G Kishan Reddy on Friday visited the flood-affected areas in Rangareddy district and blamed the state government for the situation.
He visited Bandlaguda Cheruvu area of Nagole, LB Nagar and also spoke to the local residents.
"For the past three days, I am meeting the flood-affected people and directing the people to take necessary steps for the relief. The failure of the State Government has led to this situation. But it is not the matter to point out the mistake but the authorities have closed their eyes leading to this situation," Reddy said.
