``The people of the State are angry with the NDA government led by BJP for the gross injustice done to the State,’’ he said. Raghuveera has said that the time has come to fight unitedly for securing state interests. He requested the political parties to extend their support to their proposed agitation.
He suggested the parties to fight until they get justice at this particular juncture by mounting pressure on the Union government. He reminded that the UPA-led Congress government included all the important benefits to the State in the AP Reorganisation Act. He wondered as to why the BJP government was not implementing the Act.
