During his address, in a lawyers meeting organised by Telangana BJP at Hyderabad on Sunday, Union Minister of State for Law, P P Choudhary took a charge on Congress-led government. He said that the Centre government during congress rule focused only on "marketing"
Unlike congress government, the last three years of central government led by Narendra Modi, has given focus on their work. He added that, this kind of service was not seen in the last 60 years of Congress rule. Their focus was primarily on marketing without doing any work," he said.
Under the rule of Modi, the definition of politics has now seemed to be changed. Politics now means "service," while earlier it was synonymous with business, said Choudhary.
Modi was also credited by him for bringing new work culture for the bureaucrats. "Under the previous regimes, the poor were made vote bank, but now Modi's and his government's vision is welfare of poor and farmers," Choudhary said.
Commenting on having separate high courts for Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, the minister said as per the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Act, the two states must have separate high courts (post-bifurcation). At present the two states have a common high court.
Giving hope to these two states, minister also said that the matter is sub-judice in the high court. The order for separate courts will be passed soon and the necessary instructions will be given," he added.
"I have been told that they (AP government) have identified land for setting up the high court. As far as the Central government is concerned, Rs 500 crore has been given to AP for construction of Raj Bhavan, secretariat and the high court," the Union minister said.
The light of hope given by Choudhary has to be welcomed by both the states, as judicial is one of the pillars in Indian constitution
