BRS working president K.T. Rama Rao (KTR) has sharply criticized the Congress-led Telangana government, urging it to concentrate on good governance and stop the ongoing flight of capital from the state. He said that poor administrative performance is pushing investors away.
Highlighting a recent example, KTR pointed to Kaynes Technology, a company that had planned to invest ₹2,800 crore and create 2,000 jobs in Telangana, but has now shifted its plans to Gujarat. He attributed this to delays, inefficiency, and a lack of accountability in the current administration.
According to him, the previous BRS-led government had the state running in “autopilot mode” towards progress. However, the Congress government has, in his words, taken Telangana into a mode of “auto-destruction,” undoing years of industrial growth.
He also cited other major companies like Corning and Premier Energies that have redirected investments to Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh. KTR expressed concern that Telangana is losing its competitive edge and reputation as a business-friendly state.
He blamed the erosion of investor confidence on inconsistent policies and lack of clear direction. He called on the government to act quickly, restore credibility, and ensure transparent decision-making to prevent further economic setbacks.
KTR warned that if these trends continue, the state’s economy could suffer long-term damage, affecting job creation and public welfare.
