Revanth Reddy Slams KTR from the US Amid Telangana Flood Crisis

Chandrababu Naidu, who successfully managed to deploy six choppers.

His comments come amidst ongoing discussions about the handling of the flood crisis and the adequacy of the response measures taken by local authorities.

“Appalling attitude by the government in handling the flood situation across the state! Situation in Khammam is even worse. There are three ministers from Khammam region but zero help to the people there. Tired of the apathy, public took to streets. They are demanding basic assistance and help.”
