Pawan Doesn't Know Facts: Venkaiah Naidu

Union minister M. Venkaiah Naidu on Saturday lashed out at JanaSena chief Pawan Kalyan saying that he was speaking on the issues like special status to AP without actually knowing the facts.

Some people are indulging in needless criticism of the Centre and the state governments on special category status to AP which is uncalled for. The NDA government is giving massive financial assistance to AP which no other state got earlier, the minister quipped. He said that the NDA government was serious about the AP’s development and reminded that the Centre had promised to bear the revenue deficit of AP.

Centre also promised to complete the Polavaram project and had sanctioned Rs 850 crore for the project, Naidu added.
