My words on guarantee schemes have been distorted, says CM’s Financial Advisor Basavaraj Rayareddy
Koppal: Financial advisor to the Chief Minister and Koppal MLA Basavaraj Rayareddy has taken objection to media houses allegedly misquoting him while reporting on his statement in relation to guarantee schemes.
Rayareddy, who inaugurated the girls’ high school in Hirevenkalagunta village in Yalaburga taluk on Monday, clarified that he had never commented on stopping the guarantee schemes. “There is no shortage of funds for the government to do so. The party has not demeaned my stature. If I am made the Finance Minister, I will ensure that more guarantee schemes are implemented. Men too will be provided free transport in state buses,” the legislator said.
On an earlier occasion, the MLA was inaugurating classrooms in Ryavanaki village of Kukanoor taluk when people from the audience are said to have approached him and complained that the government had failed to provide the village a road although it continued to provide the Gruha Laxmi funds to women.
In response, Rayareddy reportedly told the villagers to refuse all guarantee schemes and ask the government to build a road with the funds reserved for the schemes. He is also learned to have told the villagers that if they did so, he would speak up for them before the CM.
