Puducherry Health and Tourism Minister Malladi Krishna Rao on Saturday hit out at the territorial Lieutenant Governor Kiran Bedi for allegedly impeding the implementation of developmental schemes evolved for Yanam region from where Rao had been elected to the assembly.
Addressing reporters at the PCC office here, Rao said, "It is indeed a matter of concern that the Lieutenant Governor has not been giving her nod for implementation of welfare schemes meant for Yanam region, an enclave of Puducherry in Andhra Pradesh."
He said if Bedi visited Yanam without approving of the schemes "we will teach her a fitting lesson."
