Anantapur: YSR Congress Party MLA Alla Ramakrishna Reddy (RK) said that Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu was the person who handed over a letter seeking bifurcation of the state. Speaking at Vanchana Pai Garjana (Deception Day protest) here today he said that YSRCP President YS Jagan Mohan Reddy was the brand ambassador for Special Category Status (SCS) to Andhra Pradesh.

The YSRCP MLA pointed out that in the last four years Chandrababu did not raise his voice against BJP. The AP CM did not dare to ask Prime Minister Narendra Modi to accord SCS to AP, he said. RK reminded the gathering that when the YSRCP leader tried to speak about SCS, his mike was muted. He observed that Chandrababu and his ministers were looting the state indiscriminately. In the name of the state capital, Chandrababu was involved in large-scale corruption, he added.

Turncoat MLAs Were No Different From Cattle

YSRCP MLA Rachamallu Prasad Reddy remarked that the turncoat MLAs were nothing but animals. The MLA participated in Vanchana Pai Garjana (Deception Day protest) here today to protest against the negligent attitude of State and Central governments with regard to allotting Special Category Status (SCS) to Andhra Pradesh as well as fulfilling the promises made in the AP State Reorganisation Act.

The YSRCP MLA mentioned that by shifting parties, the MLAs have belittled the people's expectations. He termed CM Ramesh's protest as a fake one and said that despite fasting for 11 days Ramesh was looking hale and healthy. He added that he would sport a black scarf until Chandrababu gets ousted from the CM's post.

How Did Chandrababu Get Taken For A Ride?

Uravakonda YSRCP MLA Vishweshwar Reddy expressed his surprise that despite Chandrababu having 40 years of political experience, the AP CM got cheated at the hands of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Speaking at the Deception Day protest programme here today, he remarked that it was foolish on the part of the CM to ask people to protect him while it was his duty to safeguard the people of the state. He also said it was right on part of the TDP chief to say that if Central government does not initiate the process of establishing the Kadapa steel plant, the state government would take it up.

He reminded the huge gathering that despite Congress leader Sonia Gandhi implicating YS Jagan in false cases, the YSRCP chief remained fearless. On the other hand, afraid that he would be implicated in Vote for Notes case, Chandrababu left Hyderabad, he said and added that it was bizarre for the AP CM to pretend to be the true warrior for state's welfare.
