TPN , Karimnagar : CPI State Secretary Koonanmneni Sambasivarao called on the Congress government to apologize to the people of Telangana for delays in delivering on pre-election promises. Speaking at a press briefing at the party office in Karimnagar alongside National Executive Member Chada Venkata Reddy and District Secretary Marri Venkataswamy, Sambasivarao criticized the Congress for its slow progress, stating it has been 11 months since they assumed office, yet key pledges remain unfulfilled.
Among the promises he highlighted were free gas for women, monthly assistance of Rs. 2,500, gold for weddings under the Kalyana Lakshmi scheme, fee reimbursement for students, investment aid through Rythu Bharosa, and timely salary payments for contractual employees. Sambasivarao urged the Congress to release a white paper on the state budget to transparently communicate the reasons for these delays and the government’s future plans.
Sambasivarao also alleged that BRS and BJP are stirring unrest in Telangana through “dark deals,” complicating law and order issues. He advised the Congress to counter these conspiracies to sustain its government. Additionally, he cautioned against displacing the poor in the name of Musi River beautification.
On the upcoming centenary of the CPI, Sambasivarao announced that the party will host year-long programs at the gram, mandal, and district levels to address public issues and reinforce their commitment to the people of Telangana.
