X war breaks out between Revanth Reddy and KTR on Singareni Coal mines

X War Between Revanth Reddy And Ktr

Hyderabad : Former Minister, K Taraka Rama Rao questioned the Telangana Chief Minister, Revanth Reddy on the privatisation of Singareni Coal Mines on X. With a series of questions from both sides a social media war broke out between the duo.

Addressing Revanth Reddy, KTR on X said, “As PCC president & MP, in 2021 you (Revanth Reddy) had demanded the Union Government to stop the auction of coal blocks and transfer the 4 coal blocks to Singareni Collieries Now as Chief Minister, to the absolute dismay of people of Telangana, you have sent your Deputy CM to participate and promote the auctions that you & Congress party had opposed vociferously in the past!!”

He further asked, “Can you explain the reasons for this change of heart and compulsions (if any) that may have led to this?? Do you not agree that auctioning of Telangana coal blocks will essentially pave the way for eventual privatisation of Singareni under the guise of disinvestment ? Why is your government not questioning the Union Govt on direct allocations of mines (exempting from auctioning) to PSUs in Gujarat & Orissa by NDA Govt? Why Telangana PSU is not being given the same treatment?”

Revanth Retorts with series of questions

Replying to the KTR, Revanth Reddy attached the letters of Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Batti Vikramarkha to the Union Minister Kishan Reddy on Singareni Coal Mines and said, “Since you have not cared to hear anything crores of people of Telangana spoke for 10 years, it is unlikely you will care to listen to facts now, but hope in our hearts tries nevertheless.”

Revanth Reddy further listed a series of questions to the KTR and asked,
1. All the leaders and cadre of Congress in Telangana strongly oppose privatisation or selling off of stakes of our people by either central government or erstwhile KCR govt.

2. The first and second tranches of selling off blocks of #singareni were done by Central govt & KCR when he was CM – to two companies – Aurobindo and Avantika. You or your party never spoke against it. Compulsions?!

3. Our deputy CM Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka garu went to not only protest against further privatisation and auction of Singareni blocks but to demand revoking and return of coal block sold off to Avantika and Aurobindo (your near and dear)

4. Telangana people, their interests, their properties, rights and future is safe with Congress. We will fight not only for our coal but every single right of our people.

5. Irony died that the guy who sold off Singareni and ORR Ring Road collection rights is speaking now,” added Revanth Reddy.
