Siddipet: Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao (KCR) has said that Siddipet, the constituency he represents, is the inspiration for the Telangana model of development.
Speaking at a public meeting in Siddipet on Tuesday, KCR said that the Telangana model of development is based on the principle of inclusive growth, with a focus on providing basic necessities such as water, electricity, and irrigation to all sections of society.
He said that the Siddipet drinking water scheme, which he initiated as Siddipet MLA, inspired the state government’s flagship Mission Bhagiratha programme. He also recalled the challenges he faced in digging borewells for farmers in erstwhile Andhra Pradesh, which inspired him to initiate the Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Scheme.
KCR also said that the Dalit Bandhu programme, which provides financial assistance of Rs.10 lakh to each Dalit family, was inspired by an incident in Siddipet where he helped a Dalit woman purchase a bicycle for her son-in-law.
KCR said that he is proud to represent Siddipet and that he will continue to work for the development of the constituency and the state of Telangana.
