Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president N Uttam Kumar Reddy on Friday condemned the State government for not helping the residents of Osman Nagar in Maheshwaram Assembly constituency which remained inundated even a month after the heavy rains and floods.
Uttam Kumar Reddy, accompanied by senior Congress leaders, visited Osman Nagar and surrounding areas and interacted with the affected families.
Later, speaking to the media, he said that nearly 610 houses were inundated and the civic authorities did nothing to help the affected families. “It is a

He said it was unfortunate that Education Minister Sabitha Indira Reddy failed to help flood victims despite Osman Nagar falling in her constituency. “Several localities in Hyderabad did not receive any help from the State government.
