As a sequel to his recent stand wanting overhaul of Revenue Department to weed out corruption while talking to a farmer over telephone, Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao on Sunday told an election meetings of TRS in Mahabubnagar and Wanaparthy that the government would shortly enact a new revenue law in the State.
He also said the Dharani portal of the government, a one-stop solution for land related issues, would be launched in June or July. Technical experts were already working on commissioning of the portal. Once launched, farmers will not face the problem of corruption in the department. “I will myself stand as the voice of farmers,” he remarked.
Mr. Rao promised that he would camp in each district for three days after the Parliament elections. The problems in villages would be discussed at ‘praja darbars’ for finding lasting solutions.

He thanked the people of erstwhile Mahabubnagar district, including Wanaparthy, for electing TRS candidates in 13 out of 14 constituencies in the recent Assembly elections. He reminded them that the district was vastly different after the TRS formed the government.
Modi daydreaming
Targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his speech at a BJP public meeting in Mahabubnagar on Thursday, Mr. Rao said Mr. Modi was daydreaming that the BJP will return to power. He predicted that the BJP-led NDA government will win 150 seats and Congress-led UPA 100 seats.

Mr. Rao said even sarpanches would not talk in the tune of Mr. Modi as they were well acquainted with grassroots level requirements in villages. Mr. Modi did not speak a word about what he proposed to unveil for the development of the country in the next five years if the BJP returned to power.
He reminded people that the the BJP forfeited deposit in 103 out of 118 constituencies that the party contested in Assembly elections. It will repeat its failure in 14 to 15 constituencies in Parliament elections. The prospect of TRS led federal front playing a key role in government formation at the Centre shook the political corridors in New Delhi.
The TRS enjoyed the support of DMK, Prakash Ambedkar-led Bharipa Bahujan Maha Sangh and several other parties in various States.
