Telangana Minister Harish Rao however clarified that teh TRS government was fulfing every promise made in the Election Manifesto.  Instead of answering the query, Harish Rao asked the TDP leaders as to why their government in AP has not waived the crop and DWCRA loans.


"We stand by our words and are not going to go back like the AP government" said Harish Rao. 
In his reply chief minister KCR announced that the TS government will waive loans amounted to 17000 crore. KCR said that A.P. government till now didnt even spend a single paisa on waiving off Loans. He informed the fellow MLA's that RBI is not giving consent for re-scheduling yet Telangana State government was trying its best.
