Hyderabad, Aug 08 :-
Telugu Desam Party on Saturday demanded that the Government should call for a discussion in the Assembly on the drought situation in the State.
Speaking to the media here on Saturday senior TDP leaders Yerrannaidu and Umareddy Venkateswarulu hit out at Chief Minister Dr Y S Rajasekhara Reddy and Finance Minister Rosaiah. On one hand when the Union Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar is sounding that there is going to be severe drought all over the country out CM and Finance Minister don’t seem to be bothered.
Yerrannaidu categorically stated that during YSR’s rule blood is flowing more than water. He called on the government to appoint one senior officer for every drought hit district. The appointed officers should appraise the government on the severity of the drought in that particular district and seek the remedial measures.
