Musi rejuvenation will benefit real estate developers, says Kishan Reddy

Union Coal Minister and State BJP president G Kishan Reddy on Sunday alleged that the Musi rejuvenation and beautification plan was aimed at benefiting real estate developers.

Speaking to the media, Kishan Reddy reiterated that the BJP was not against rejuvenation of Musi river but opposed to demolition of houses of the poor. The demolition of houses was not a solution, and the easiest way for the government was to construct retaining walls along the Musi, he said.

“Clean the Musi, but don’t



destroy the homes of the poor. The Congress government’s so-called beautification plan is nothing but a cover for destroying poor families’ homes and benefiting real estate developers. The Musi beautification project has turned into a ticking time bomb for families in the Musi Zone, leaving them anxious and fearful of losing their homes,” he said.

Kishan Reddy urged Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy to take out padayatra and meet the people staying along Musi surroundings and with their permission, take up the project.
