The newly-formed State was able to achieve the growth rate of 21.7 per cent, which is the highest in the country. “Welfare and development programs launched by the State government after the formation of separate Telangana was giving good results with people’s support”, he said, adding envy at this, the Opposition parties were unable to digest the magnificent development and were making false allegations against him.
Announcing some sops to his native place, the Chief Minister said he would make Cheryal into a Municipality and additional 1,000 Double bed room house units will be sanctioned to the district apart from Rs 10 crore for construction of a cottage at Komaravelli Temple in the land available 165 acres and asked the officials to prepare project report for the development of tourist spot as Komati Cheruvu.
