Harish Rao flays govt. over ‘low quality’ school uniforms, Aarogyasri dues
BRS Deputy Floor Leader T. Harish Rao has harshly criticized Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy over low-quality school uniforms for children. In a statement, Rao highlighted the poor quality of the uniforms, their unsuitability in sizes, and early discoloration even after a few washes. He further accused the government of prioritizing middlemen from Gujarat over local Telangana handloom weavers by awarding the uniform contract to Mafatlal company.
Rao also alleged that the government had failed to clear Aarogyasri dues and pay salaries to health scheme staff, with the government hospitals in Siddipet district not receiving funds since November 2023, totaling ₹24 crore in unpaid dues.
