Why it matters
The statement reflects the ongoing political narrative in Telangana regarding the transition of power and the efficacy of welfare-based governance.
Irrigation and Civil Supplies Minister N. Uttam Kumar Reddy on Sunday said the Congress government completing 1,000 days in Telangana marked an important milestone, claiming that the period had seen the restoration of democratic governance along with the implementation of welfare and development programmes.
In a statement, Mr. Uttam Kumar Reddy said the change in government was not merely political but had restored the democratic spirit for which the people of Telangana had struggled.
He alleged that power had been concentrated in the hands of an individual and a family during the previous BRS regime and claimed that the voices of Ministers, legislators, public representatives, Opposition parties and ordinary citizens were not given importance.
Through Prajavani, gram sabhas and direct consultations, the government had brought administration closer to the people, Mr. Uttam Kumar Reddy said.
