Observing that no one is against Telangana, chief minister Kirankumar reddy today appealed to the Telangana employees to call of their strike as people are suffering.

Speaking to the media at his camp office in Hyderabad, the CM said he has not sent any false reports to the Centre on Telangana agitation and on the on-going mass general strike. “When there are facts before you to see, how can I send false reports?” he asked. “I have not sent any reports.”

Referring to the criticism leveled against the Re. 1 per kg rice scheme, Kirankumar said that the government would implement the programme with all seriousness. “It is not a casual programme and the scheme would be strictly implemented for the benefit of the masses,” he said adding that all welfare schemes are being implemented with the backing of the party president Sonia Gandhi.

Kirankumar reddy today returned to Hyderabad after attending the Uttara Andhra Congress Garjana public meeting held at Visakhapatnam last evening.
