Hyderabad: BRS working president K. T. Rama Rao on Wednesday accused Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy of pushing a hidden real estate agenda by approving the merger of 27 urban local bodies (ULB) with the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC). He alleged that the move lacked transparency and bypassed democratic procedures.
Calling the chief minister the “Anaconda of Corruption,” KTR claimed that the decision served the interests of a select few close to Revanth Reddy. He criticised the state government for proceeding without passing resolutions in the affected ULBs or holding consultations with MLAs, elected representatives, or even an all-party meeting.
“There was no debate in the Assembly. No stakeholder was consulted. Who exactly asked for this merger?” he said at a press conference in Warangal.
KMTP underutilised despite global firms setting up operations
Earlier in the day, KTR visited the Kakatiya Mega Textile Park (KMTP) in Warangal. He said the park had generated over 30,000 direct jobs and attracted major companies such as Youngone Corporation from South Korea, Kitex Group, and Ganesha Ecosphere. However, he criticised the Congress government for slow progress and underutilisation of the park’s infrastructure.

He urged the state to complete pending projects and ensure full utilisation of facilities to support industrial growth. He also drew attention to what he described as poor policy decisions on land use in Hyderabad, warning they could harm long-term industrial development.
