‘One foot in Congress, one in BRS’: BJP MP Dharmapuri Arvind slams Uttam Kumar Reddy, alleges KCR’s influence on Banakacherla project in Telangana

HYDERABAD: BJP MP Dharmapuri Arvind on Wednesday alleged that the presentation on the Banakacherla project by minister N Uttam Kumar Reddy was orchestrated under the direction of former CM K Chandrasekhar Rao.Addressing a press conference, Arvind said, “To divert attention, Uttam gave a powerpoint presentation. He has one foot in Congress and another in BRS. He lacks any understanding of the project.”He accused both Congress and BRS of attempting to tarnish BJP’s image, questioning, “CM Revanth Reddy calls himself Naidu’s disciple. Has he ever consulted his mentor?” Arvind added that the Centre and Central Water Commission would assess and decide on the project. “Earlier, both CMs discussed. Have Naidu and Revanth met now?”
