He asked the ruling party to justify for not utilising the scheme and providing safe drinking water to the people at their doorstep.

The BJP leader also blamed the ruling party for not constructing 25 lakh houses given by the Central government. He alleged that the ruling party was more interested in providing house sites to the people for commissions rather than constructing houses.

Vishnu Vardhan Reddy found fault with the state government for not developing the government hospitals right from rural and urban health centres to the government general hospitals. He said that the government had failed to provide quality health care and medicines to the people, despite the Central government’s support.

He alleged that 80 per cent of the corporate hospitals which are empanelled were not providing health care to the people under Aarogyasri. He said that the government has to clear their bills and wanted to know why the government had not cleared their bills.
