Naidu plays 'vendetta' politics: Jagan
Naidu plays ‘vendetta’ politics: Jagan, It was also the responsibility of the government to provide water and power to the company. If the government failed to address basic issues, investments would not come to AP, he added.
Hyderabad: Terming the cancellation of mining leases to Swaraswati Cements limited in Guntur district as ‘vendetta politics’, YSR Congress Party president YS Jaganmohan Reddy on Sunday alleged that Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu ‘stooped to an all time low’.
A group of farmers, who sold their lands for the establishment of the company, from Dachepalli and Machavaram met Jagan at the latter’s camp office and extended their support to the YSRCP leader who was also one of the promoter of the company.
Speaking to reporters here, the Opposition leader said the farmers were caned when they staged dharna at the CM camp office demanding to withdraw the cancellation of the mining rights to the company. Naidu's highhandedness in this episode was a stark example of his vindictive behaviour, he said.
Stating that the company would seek judicial intervention against the government’s unilateral decision to scrap the lease agreements, Jagan said, “We will explore all available options to fight injustice. AP will not get investments if the government does not stop bullying tactics against the investors.”
It was also the responsibility of the government to provide water and power to the company. If the government failed to address basic issues, investments would not come to AP, he added.
The YSRCP leader contended that all the farmers at the project site had been benefited a lot after their lands were purchased at good prices by the company. Now, the farmers came on roads for their livelihoods.
