KCR finalises strategy to take on BJP in Telangana Assembly

Deccan Chronicle  

Hyderabad: Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao has decided to hold a week-long Assembly session in December to castigate the ruling BJP at the Centre on a number of issues, most notably the losses incurred by the state as a result of “unnecessary restrictions” imposed by the Modi government in the current fiscal year 2022-23, “ludicrous economic policies” becoming a stumbling block to the future and growth of the states. According to a media statement issued by the Chief Minister's Office on Thursday, the Centre's “unnecessary sanctions” have resulted in a Rs 40,000 crore loss to the state exchequer in the current financial year 2022-23. The Centre announced a FRBM limit of Rs 54,000 crore for Telangana state in the fiscal year 2022-23. According to the CMO release, Telangana did not receive nearly Rs 40,000 crore due to the central government’s ill-conceived policies and decisions made with complete financial mismanagement.
