Congress ready for mid-term polls in Telangana: Uttam Kumar

Telangana Congress today attacked the K Chandrasekhar Rao led TRS government of ''luring'' people of the State with "impossible promises" in its Budget.

"TRS Government tried to 'lure' some sections of Backward Classes by offering various sops only to 'hide its failure' to implement 12 per cent quota for STs and Muslims, three acres of land for Dalit families and other major promises," Telangana Congress chief N Uttam Kumar Reddy told reporters at Gandhi Bhavan here.

The sops announced by TRS Government to various sections in the budget for



2017-18 tabled yesterday clearly indicate that the State was heading for mid-terms polls in 2018, said Reddy.

"If TRS Government wants to go to polls in 2018 it self, the Congress is ready to face elections whenever they are held," he said.Raising doubts over the Government's capability to implement the schemes announced in the budget, he said for the TRS Government it has become a habit to make "fake promises" even in Budget speeches.

He accused the TRS Government of providing wrong statistics to the Centre to get higher growth rate.
