KTR missing posters in flood-affected areas of GHMC

The general impression about KTR is that he is just a tweet away from the people in distress. There are several instances when KTR responded to the SoS sent through social media and addressed the problems of the people. But, the big question everyone in the GHMC area are asking now is where was KTR when Hyderabad was ravaged by rains and flood.

Many people from the low-lying areas had a harrowing time as their colonies were marooned and the roads became water-logged. It’s almost two days, but KTR has neither issued a statement nor visited any affected area. He has not stirred out of his residence to console the flood affected people. Protesting against his continued absence from public life, his detractors have put up posters that claimed “KTR was missing.” These “Missing KTR” posters are creating quite a sensation these days.

In fact, during last year’s floods, the TRS government has announced Rs 10000 as an ex-gratia to the flood affected people. With the GHMC polls round the corner, the government promised ex-gratia but could not pay. This has led to a lot of discontent among the people. The non-payment of ex-gratia could have been the reason for KTR not going to the flood-hit areas, say sources. Whatever the reason, “KTR missing” posters are creating quite a sensation in the flood hit areas.
