Adluri challenges KTR over Gurukul infrastructure

SC, ST and Minorities Welfare Minister Adluri Laxman Kumar on Sunday launched a scathing attack on BRS working president KT Ram Rao, challenging him to prove whether a single Gurukul building was constructed during the tenure of the BRS government.

While the previous government had increased the number of gurukuls, it had failed to create adequate infrastructure, forcing many institutions to function from rented premises, he said.

The Defense Minister of the Congress government said that the present administration has increased the per diem fees of the students and is taking steps to improve the facilities in the residential educational institutions. He also criticized BRS leaders for demanding widespread implementation of the Dalit Bandhu scheme and claimed that only a limited number of beneficiaries received the assistance.
