The Telangana government is delaying bill payments, mainly to advertising agencies and publications. It is not clear why this situation has continued for a long time.

The main problem is that the government issues the Budget and releases the token numbers from the Pay Office, Hyderabad. Yet, the payments are not being made by the finance wing. At times, the tokens are rejected. Why?

The advertising agencies and publications are a troubled lot in the industry, with owners as well as employees facing very hard time due to non-payment of the bills for a very long time. Is no one responsible for this situation? We request the Chief Minister and the Finance Minister to look into the matter seriously and help in clearing the bills in time. Hope CM will help the industry and save us. -Anil, Hyderabad.
