Hyderabad, November 2: AICC spokesperson Dr Dasoju Sravan
raised serious concerns over the irregularities and illegalities in the
distribution of flood relief compensation amount in Hyderabad, asserting TRS
leaders are committing a 'white-collar' robbery of public money in the name of
compensation distribution. He approached Telangana High Court on Monday seeking
an inquiry on the widespread irregularities, discrimination and embezzlement of
funds allotted towards compensation for flood-affected families in Greater
Hyderabad, by filing a Public Interest Litigation. Dr Dasoju Sravan also
demanded Telangana State Election Commission (SEC) for the postponement of
electoral rolls preparations for Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC)
elections, until the flood relief compensation distribution is completed.
"Widespread irregularities and discrimination are
occurring in the distribution of compensation amounts for flood-affected
families in the Greater Hyderabad. TRS leaders are committing a brazen
'white-collar' robbery of public money in the name of compensation
distribution. While Congress demanded to offer Rs 50,000 to every
flood-affected family in the city, CM KCR promised to provide just Rs 10,000 to
every family and announced Rs 550 Crore towards flood relief compensation. He
also said that 200-250 ‘Disaster Relief Teams’ would carry out the relief
efforts. But it is extremely unfortunate that even this exercise, which needs
to be executed with utmost sincerity, considerate attitude and swiftness, to
offer relief to the lakhs of suffering families during a calamity, is being
used for political benefits by ruling TRS Government and seen as 'money making'
and 'vote bank' ploy. As a result, even after three weeks since torrential
rains devastated Hyderabad, lakhs of people who have faced severe losses due to
the floods, are yet to receive compensation and living in abject
conditions," said Dr Dasoju Sravan expressing severe displeasure over TRS
Government's handling of flood relief compensation distribution.
"TRS Government has been completely irresponsible and
brazen in case of compensation distribution. Till now no official exercise has
been taken up by GHMC or state government to assess the loss occurred during
the floods and to identify the beneficiaries. Compensation amount has been
distributed to people, cherry-picked by TRS leaders. In most of the cases,
beneficiaries were selected on the suggestions of TRS MLAs, corporators or ward
level TRS leaders. As a result, genuine victims have been left out to fend for
themselves. Also this compensation amount is distributed by ward level leaders
wearing TRS 'kanduvas' instead of GHMC or government officials. Also cash is
being distributed instead of cheques. That too just Rs 1,000 or Rs 2,000 is
distributed to each family arbitrarily without any criteria. Have we ever seen
compensation being distributed in the form of cash instead of cheques? How did
money, which is supposed to be from the CMRF, get into the hands of ward level
TRS leaders? Who are the officials accountable for this money? Is there any
official record of this money?" said Dr Dasoju Sravan firing a volley of
questions against the TRS Government.
Congress senior leader, who is also the party in-charge of
famed Khairatabad constituency falling under GHMC limits explained, "CM
KCR said Rs 550 Crore would be distributed in Hyderabad city. CS Somesh Kumar
said Rs Rs 389 Crore were distributed till now. But according to our reports
just Rs 56 Crore have been disbursed till now. We are getting thousands of
complaints daily from Hyderabad residents about non receipt of compensation.
Even in cases where compensation was distributed, TRS MLAs, corporators and
ward level TRS leaders pocketed commissions. It is disgusting that TRS leaders
are resorting to corruption and pocketing commissions in the meagre Rs 10,000
amount from people, who are already devastated. Every TRS corporator has
usurped Rs 5 to 10 lakh in the process. We have seen TRS Govt pocketing
thousands of crores as commissions in irrigation projects. But this is a new
low in TRS loot under CM KCR's rule.It is unfortunate that state government and
GHMC officials, who need to safeguard public money and work for the people, are
acting hand in glove with TRS leaders and supporting their loot. Therefore I
have approached the High Court to order for an inquiry on the 'compensation
distribution for flood-affected families' and to ensure that money is reached
directly to affected families instead of TRS leaders pockets."
Electoral Rolls Preparation and Publication for GHMC Polls
should be postponed:
AICC spokesperson Dr Dasoju Sravan demanded for the
postponement of Electoral Rolls preparation for Greater Hyderabad Municipal
Corporation (GHMC) elections. He came down heavily on Telangana State Election
Commission (SEC) for releasing the notification for Electoral Rolls, while
residents of Hyderabad are yet to come out of the devastation caused by floods
and compensation amounts distribution exercise is still in the process.
"TRS Government has completely failed in offering relief
to lakhs of flood affected families in Hyderabad. Instead of offering succour
to the suffering people, TRS MLAs, corporators and ward level leaders have
formed cartels and pocketed commissions. Even in cases where money was
distributed, TRS leaders are using it for publicity. Now the TRS Government and
Telangana State Election Commission are enacting a new political drama. SEC
issued notification on 31.10.2020 for the 'Preparation of Electoral Rolls.
Citing this GHMC Commissioner ordered officials to stop distribution of relief
amount, as they are needed to urgently take up electoral rolls preparation. TRS
leaders will again take up cash distribution after publication of electoral
rolls in the run up to the polls, and present it as pending flood compensations
being distributed during polls. In such a case it is completely unethical and
will not provide equal opportunity to all political parties. Therefore
electoral rolls preparation should be postponed till the compensation amounts
distribution to flood-affected families is completed," said Dr Dasoju
Sravan demanding postponement of Electoral Rolls Preparation.
"Telangana State Election Commission has turned into
Kalvakuntla Election Commission. Instead of focusing on ensuring safe and fair
elections, State Election Commission is dancing to the tunes of CM KCR. How
will the SEC release notification for 'Preparation and Publication of Electoral
Rolls for GHMC' when people are stuck in deep trouble in the aftermath of
floods? Due to SEC notification, compensation distribution to poor people is
being stopped. Can't SEC wait till compensation is completely
distributed?" fired Dr Dasoju Sravan, disapproving SEC's move.
Congress senior leader has sought High Court's intervention
to postpone 'Electoral Rolls Preparation' through his PIL.
Flood Relief Control Room at Gandhi Bhavan for flood compensation
related complaints:
Congress party has set up a Flood Relief Control Room at
Gandhi Bhavan to address the complaints relating to flood relief. Dr Dasoju
Sravan urged Hyderabadis to utilise this facility and complain about the
irregularities in compensation distribution. He promised that Congress would
take up people's complaints received through the Control Room and ensure that
compensation is reached to them.
