Meanwhile, Telangana CM K Chandrasekhar Rao slammed PM Modi's 76th I-Day speech, calling it nothing worthwhile has been spoken at the biggest dais. KCR on Tuesday came down heavily on Prime Minister Narendra Modi saying the latter said nothing worthwhile during his Independence Day speech except delivering "dialogues" and displaying a long turban around his head.

Speaking at a public meeting here, Rao, popularly known as KCR, slammed the Prime Minister for his remarks on freebies saying that no state in the country is implementing welfare measures that are done in Telangana.

"Yesterday I also was listening to the PM's speech. Anyway, they did nothing for eight years, I thought they would do something for the remaining two years. There was nothing in the whole one-hour speech, except dialogues and a scarf around his head, dress up, there was nothing. No new scheme was announced. Not even a single word about the welfare of the country," the Telangana Chief Minister charged, as quoted by PTI.

Attacking Modi, KCR alleged that the Centre is forcing the states to fix meters for pumpsets and also import coal even when the commodity is available at a cheaper price in India. Referring to some BJP activists who tried to protest when the CM's convoy was passing, he said people of Vikarabad should pose questions to these saffron party workers as to what Modi did during the past eight years of rule.

"I am asking the Prime Minister what you have done in the past eight years. Farmers? Women? Tribals? Muslims and Dalits? Which section as benefitted? None. On top of that, when the state governments within their limits are implementing some welfare measures, they are called freebies and should be discontinued," KCR charged.
