BRS will provide 24x7 water to every household: KTR

For online

Hyderabad: BRS working president KT Rama Rao has announced that the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), would ensure 24x7-hour safe drinking water supply to every household in Hyderabad city after returning to power in the state. Addressing a meeting of party cadres in Kukatpally on Sunday, KTR said the BRS govt had earlier transformed Telangana from a state plagued by severe power shortages into one with uninterrupted 24x7 electricity supply and would similarly guarantee round-the-clock drinking water supply to Hyderabad in the future.

KTR said the same determination shown by KCR in ensuring uninterrupted electricity supply would now be directed towards providing 24x7 drinking water supply in Hyderabad. “The person who gave 24-hour power supply to Telangana is KCR, and the person who will provide 24-hour drinking water supply to Hyderabad is also KCR,” he asserted. He added that he would personally take responsibility for ensuring the successful implementation of the programme after the BRS returns to power.

Recalling the conditions before the Telangana’s formation, KTR said the region had suffered under decades of Congress rule, with people forced to face long power cuts and drinking water scarcity. He stated that protests and agitations for electricity and water were common in the united AP. However, after Telangana was created, K. Chandrashekar Rao’s govt had successfully implemented un-interrupted 24x7 power supply and launched Mission Bhagiratha to provide piped drinking water to households across the state.

Criticizing the Congress govt, KTR alleged that the party had cheated every section of society with unrealistic promises during the assembly elections. He said Congress had failed to fulfil promises ranging from enhanced pensions to monthly financial assistance for women. According to him, despite being in power for nearly two-and-a-half years, the Congress govt had failed to spend even a single additional rupee for Hyderabad’s development.

The BRS leader accused CM A. Revanth Reddy of taking false credit by inaugurating projects built during the previous BRS regime, including flyovers, hospitals and major infrastructure facilities. He alleged that Congress leaders were merely cutting ribbons for projects constructed under BRS governance while falsely portraying them as their own achievements.

KTR also challenged the Congress govt to prove that it had constructed even one double-bedroom housing project in Hyderabad during its tenure. He declared that he would retire from politics if the government could establish that a single double-bedroom housing unit had been built in the city under Congress rule.

KTR further stated that the people of Hyderabad were fully aware of Congress governance and therefore did not elect the party even to a single seat in the city. He alleged that Hyderabad’s real estate sector had been severely damaged due to Congress policies, leading to a major slowdown in construction activity and loss of employment for lakhs of construction and centring workers.

He also announced that the upcoming BRS membership drive would be conducted entirely in digital mode. He said the membership registration process and committee formation exercise would continue for nearly 50 to 60 days, and that special training sessions would be organised for party workers regarding the enrolment programme.

During the Kukatpally meeting, KTR also made a detailed presentation on the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. He urged party cadres to remain vigilant against alleged fake and duplicate votes registered by Congress and BJP. Calling upon booth-level workers to act strategically, he asked party ranks to ensure that not a single genuine voter loses voting rights and to actively assist people during the voter revision process.
