Finance Minister Etala Rajender has strongly criticised a section of media for targeting the TRS Government.
While replying to a question on new ration cards during Question Hour in the Telangana State Legislative Assembly on Thursday, Etala alleged that a section of media, backed by Andhra-lobby, was wrongly criticising the TRS Government. He said the same media carried negative stories during the Telangana agitation. Stating that their propaganda would be countered effectively, Etala said that TRS Government has increased the welfare funds and relaxed norms to benefit the poor. He reiterated that schemes like Arogyasri or fee reimbursement (FAST) have not been shelved, but they would be implemented more effectively by plugging all loopholes.
Etala said that the TRS leaders would not sleep till the formation of 'Bangaru Telangana'.
