A giant roll of questions about irrigation, farmers and other public issues winds up the steps of the Telangana Assembly towards a small, nearly empty government answer desk.

The BRS has listed its questions ahead of the Telangana Assembly session.

K. Chandrashekhar Rao chaired the BRS Legislature Party meeting at Erravelli on Sunday, ahead of the Telangana Assembly session scheduled to begin on September 7. The party discussed its floor strategy and plans to seek an Assembly sitting of at least one month — an unusually ambitious request in a state where even a week can apparently qualify as extended deliberation.

According to the reported meeting details, the BRS plans to raise Kaleshwaram and Palamuru-Rangareddy, along with fee reimbursement, farmers’ issues, power supply, loan waiver, 22(A) lands, GO 97 on polytechnic colleges, Singareni and employees’ demands. The party also said KCR would lead a public campaign on the two irrigation projects after the session.

The stronger claims — including alleged neglect, pump-operation decisions and project-completion figures — remain BRS assertions. No irrigation-department status report, pump log, formal BRS resolution or mobilisation schedule was available in the material reviewed. The Congress government in Telangana has not bothered to answer those specific claims in the sources checked. For now, the confirmed development is simpler: the BRS has prepared its questions, and the government has the Assembly to answer in.
