Former Telangana Municipal Minister Kalvakuntla Taraka Ramarao (KTR) accused the Telangana government of awarding contracts to companies owned by Chief Minister Revanth Reddy. KTR also severely criticised the Congress government for requiring an inquiry into the works allotted under the AMRUT (Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation) scheme.
He also alleged that another scam took place via the public health department. KTR’s major accusation is that hundreds of crores worth of contracts under the AMRUT scheme were awarded to companies linked to the Chief Minister’s brother-in-law, Srujan Reddy, despite their lack of eligibility.
“In Telangana, the current CM is also the Municipal minister. There is a huge scam in the department. A scam of Rs 8,868 crore has been carried out through the Public Health Department by the CM. When you took the oath as CM, you said that no family member or relative would gain any profit through your office. But today you gave your brother-in-law such a huge project flouting the rules,” alleges KTR.
KTR further highlighted that this is not the first instance of such scam and previously Rs 1,000 crore scam involved the procurement of fine variety rice and paddy lifting in the state.
