Reaching out to the people of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, Minister of State for Home Affairs Kiren Rijiju on Sunday said the Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) believes in good governance and alleged that the benefits of the Central Government sponsored schemes do not reach the general public in the states ruled by other parties.
"The government has in the last two years rolled out many schemes and plans to benefit the people, but wherever there is a state ruled by the other parties and not BJP the benefits are not reaching the people," said Rijiju.
"Prime Minister Modi is rolling out schemes and policies for the people, but when we visit various locations across the country we realize that all those states ruled by the BJP are quick in receiving the funds and implementation and rolling the benefits. But the other political parties are not quick enough," he added.
Rijiju further said the people must be aware and remain alert about the various schemes and raise their voices if they are not receiving them.
"We believe in good governance and appeal to the people of Telangana to be alert and make realize the ruling party that every penny from the Centre must reach to the people and if the government is unable to do so then the people must raise their voice," he said.
Rijiju also appealed to the various state governments for full-fledged implementation of the Centre sponsored schemes.
"We don't want to encroach on the state governments' rights, but we appeal that the good schemes by the Centre must reach the people," said Rijiju, adding the Centre is doing its best to provide both Telangana and Andhra with all benefits.
