HYDERABAD, Jan 15: Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu today accused the Centre of “blocking” various developmental programmes launched by the state government.
“All our programmes are blocked by Delhi where both politics and uncertainty reign supreme. In fact, we sometimes feel humiliated to approach the Centre to get approvals for even small things,” he said.
Naidu also stressed the need for more decentralisation to avoid inordinate delays in approval of projects and sustain various programmes taken up by the states.
The CM was speaking after unveiling the foundation plaque of the “ICICI Knowledge Park” on the outskirts of the city. He was responding to ICI Limited chairman and ICICI director Ashok Ganguly’s remarks that there was no development in the national capital as the thrust was more on politics while states like Andhra were witnessing a flurry of business promotion activities.
