Not only the Modi regime achieved monumental progress, but also provided handsome funds to the Telugu States through the GST. While this is so, the chief ministers of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh K Chandrashekhar Rao and N Chandrababu Naidu respectively trying to mislead the people on the Central assistance to them.
Addressing mediapersons at State party headquarters here, Dattatreya said while Prime Minister Modi was giving honest and transparent government, the TRS government in the State was indulging in corrupt practices. He also made it clear that the BJP would go it alone in Telangana during the ensuing general elections and would contest in all the 17 Lok Sabha seats.
Stating that his party was making efforts to cross 400 Lok Sabha seats this time, Dattatraya said in the December Assembly polls in Telangana, the BJP managed to win only one out of 120 seats it contested.

Dattatraya also said some 40 crore people have benefited from various welfare schemes launched by the Modi government, including around 16 crore who had benefited from the MUDRA Yojana alone. He said Union Minister Nitin Gadkari will take part in the BJP’s cluster meeting of Hyderabad, Secunderabad and Malkajgiri parliamentary seats on February 5 and BJP national president Amit Shah may visit the Telangana State on February 13 to review the party’s poll preparedness. He also said the Prime Minister and several Union ministers are also likely to visit Telangana in the coming days, he said. Dattatreya also slammed the TRS government for not implementing Central schemes, including the PMJAY health insurance scheme.
