Pooh-poohing functioning of the Government for its lack of transparency and accountability, YSR Congress has said the State has issued 77 GOs which are aimed at benefitting TDP coterie by amending the set norms.

“Chandrababu Naidu has set the tone for this trend at the Collectors Conference held at Vijayawada during which he spoke like TDP President and not like the Chief Minister of a State by signaling that the party cadre should be given priority.

Immediately attacks on YSRCP workers were stepped up and now some GOs have come to light which are in concord to his speech at the Collectors conference,” party spokesperson Tammineni Sitaram told reporters in Hyderabad on Friday.

The GO no 61 of Panchayat Raj and Roads and Buildings has increased the limit for e-tenders from Rs 1 lakh to Rs 5 lakhs which is a clear indication that all contracts would be split and staggered and will be given on nomination basis to TDP leaders and the corporate mafia, he said.

On the other hand Fair Price Shops (FPS) are being closed down, anganwadi workers are being sacked on the sole reason that they are sympathizers of YSRCP and the same attitude is reflected in NREG Scheme and other Centre sponsored schemes.

This has been the summary of the 100-day rule of Chandrababu Naidu which is dotted with nepotism, vindictiveness towards political adversaries and indifference towards people’s welfare he said adding that YSR should be taken as a role model as he looked beyond political and regional affiliations.

He asserted that YSRCP stands for freedom of press and slammed TDP leaders who were pointing fingers. It is the tradition of TDP to boycott or ignore selective media, he said.
