Unity in YSRCP forced TDP to stay off MLC polls says Jagan Mohan Reddy
Repeats his claim that people’s dissatisfaction is mounting against TDP due to unkept promises
Vijayawada : YSRCP chief YS Jagan Mohan Reddy said that the significant presence and unity of the YSRCP has unnerved Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu, resulting in the TDP’s withdrawal from the MLC election in north Andhra.
Addressing ZPTCs and MPTCs from Elamanchili and Bheemili constituencies at his camp office on Wednesday, the former chief minister highlighted the contrast between the current and previous administrations, emphasising how the YSRCP government, during its tenure, delivered on its promises without excuses, even amidst unprecedented challenges like the Covid-19 pandemic. He pointed out that the financial crisis depicted by Chandrababu Naidu was inherited by the YSRCP government, which also faced additional burdens due to the pandemic. Despite these difficulties, he stressed that his administration never shied away from implementing welfare schemes, ensuring that benefits were directly delivered to every household.
He stated that the TDP coalition government has failed to deliver on key welfare programmes, dismantled crucial educational and healthcare initiatives, and fostered a governance style that is increasingly seen as corrupt and ineffective. He cited specific examples, such as the discontinuation of schemes like Amma Vodi, Rythu Bharosa and fee reimbursement, as well as the deterioration in law and order, healthcare, agriculture, and education sectors.
He also warned that TDP’s failure to fulfil its promises and the resulting discontent among the public will soon reach a point where TDP workers will struggle to face the electorate. He said there is a growing dissatisfaction among the public with TDP’s governance, suggesting that within three months, TDP workers would also face backlash from every household.
Jagan Mohan Reddy expressed confidence that the people would question TDP’s failure to fulfil its promise. He encouraged his party members to remain courageous in the face of adversity, assuring them that if they continue to support the people, they will, in turn, support YSRCP.
