Former Chief Minister Harish Rao has taken to the media to accuse the Revanth Reddy administration of undoing the progress that Telangana achieved during his tenure.
In a statement released to Telangana Today, Rao alleged that the new government’s policies are reversing the state’s development trajectory, citing a range of sectors from infrastructure to welfare schemes.
Rao, who led Telangana from 2014 to 2018, pointed to the rapid growth in road networks, water projects and educational initiatives as benchmarks that he claims are now being rolled back.
The Revanth Reddy government has not yet issued a formal response to Rao’s allegations, and the political fallout is expected to intensify as opposition leaders rally around the former chief minister’s claims.
