Rajnath lists out what Modi govt did for AP

July 20, 2018 17:05

Home Minister Rajnath Singh closes by addressing Telugu Desam Party MPs.

He said they have a lot of concerns. We have tried to implement AP Reorganisation Act 2014 as much as possible. However, since it is a matter between two states, some things cannot be done until there's a consensus.

"Whatever is left to be done, will be done soon," Singh said.

He lists out what the National Democratic Alliance government did for AP, amid uproar by the TDP MPs.

On the question of special category status, Singh said there are some compulsions, but whatever special assistance is needed for Andhra Pradesh will be given.

"A special assistance package was given to AP in 2016, and there are several projects in pipeline," Singh said.

"AP government should have implemented all the projects sanctioned without stressing on special status," he said.
