Arvind Kejriwal heaps praise on Telangana Chief Minister KCR, talks about irrigation, Kanti Velugu

HYDERABAD: While lauding Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao's triumphs in irrigation sector, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said on Friday that KCR had done incredible feats in the field of irrigation by supplying irrigation water to every bit of agricultural area in their State.

Kejriwal lauded KCR and his innovative ideas in implementing Kanti Velugu initiative in Telangana state, during his address at the Zee National Achievers Awards.

Arvind Kejriwal said, "Chief Minister KCR did a fantastic job in irrigation by providing water to all the agriculture fields in their State. When I was recently at Khammam for a major event, I learned that their government provided free eye screenings to 4 cr people in Telangana.They supplied free spectacles to anyone who needed them, performed eye procedures as required, and provided specific eye treatments according to the ailments, all at a very little cost. Whatever the KCR government accomplished in his state is incredible. I believe we should all learn from Telangana State's best practises.

"Rather than only criticising each other, we should learn from everyone in this country, not just his government. Something is seriously wrong with the system when it criticises those who are attempting to do good rather than encouraging them. Our system does not even encourage a start-up entrepreneur, who is trying to do something, whether they are politicians, businessmen, or entrepreneurs, and we need to change this negativity in the system," the Delhi Chief Minister remarked.
