Ridiculing Telugu Desam chief N Chandrababu Naidu for taking credit for the Supreme Court’s notice to the Maharashtra Government on the Babhali irrigation project construction, Major Irrigation Minister Ponnala Lakshmaiah said today that Naidu had no moral right to do so.
“Naidu had made no attempt to stop the then Karnataka government from constructing the Almatti project during his tenure. He is taking the credit in the present instance only to gain political mileage.’’ Speaking to reporters here today, Lakshmaiah said that Naidu had ignored farmers during his nine-year rule but was shamelessly taking credit for their prosperity which was achieved during the Congress rule in the past five years.
Moreover, Naidu had been criticising the State Government at the top of his voice in regard to the irrigation projects in the State but was appropriating credit for the efforts of the YSR Government to stall the illegal construction of Babhali by Maharashtra, he said.
The minister said that the development-oriented State Government proposed construction of Palar reservoir in Kuppam constituency though its was being represented by Naidu.
In contrast, the TDP chief had failed to address the water problems of the people of his constituency, Lakshmaiah charged.The major irrigation minister criticised the TDP for organising a meeting on Babhali even after participating in the all-party meeting organised by the Communist Party of India on the same issue.
The TDP did not seem to attach importance to the CPIs ponsored meeting,he quipped
