Hyderabad: BRS MLA Kaleru Venkatesh on Thursday demanded the government to make an immediate release of Rs.1,000 crore to the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC), which he said was on the verge of slipping into a financial crisis.
Voicing concern over the tardy implementation of development works, which he said had come almost to a standstill in certain places, Venkatesh said the payments due under different heads were pending to the tune of Rs 1200 crore and were not being cleared by the Corporation. There were almost no takers for contract works. The tenders for certain works were recalled for more than 20 times, but the response continued to be lukewarm.

The flood bank constructed around the temple town was incomplete to ensure full-fledged protection. It needed to be extended by another half a kilometre without delay.
