Kondru comes to CM's defence

Medical and Health Minister Kondru Murali came to the defence of Chief Minister saying that the decision of the launch of Bangaru Thalli scheme was taken with the available ministers.

It is but natural for one or two persons to have reservations on the cabinet decisions and it is not a new thing, he said.

Ministers K Jana Reddy and DL Ravindra Reddy along with PCC Chief Botsa Satyanrayaana went hammer and tongs against the Chief Minister for the launch of Bangaru Thalli scheme. While some said it was not discussed in the cabinet others questioned the feasibility of the scheme. He was speaking to media after a meeting with Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy.

On Bayyaram mines, he said the issue need not be politicized. “Why did KCR not question when the Bayyaram mines were allotted to Rakshana Steels,’ he asked.
