Vijayawada: CPI state secretary K Ramakrishna announced that the Left parties would contest the elections in alliance with the Jana Sena party and efforts were on to create a third alternative political force in the state. He said the Backward Classes and weaker sections would not get justice under the rule of either YSRCP or TDP.
Addressing media at the state party office on Monday, Ramakrishna said the Left parties are holding discussions with Jana Sena and would get clarity soon on sharing of seats. He alleged that both TDP and YSRCP were trying to woo the BC voters in the state.
Referring to BC Jayaho meeting conducted by the TDP in Rajamahendravaram and BC Garjana by YSRCP in Eluru on Sunday, Ramakrishna said both parties made a slew of promises to the BCs.
He questioned as to why the TDP and the YSRCP were not giving Rajya Sabha membership to the BC candidates in the state. He recalled the TDP gave ticket to upper caste candidates like CM Ramesh, TG Venkatesh, Y S Chowdary and the YSRCP gave ticket to candidates V Vijayasai Reddy and Vemireddy Prabhakar Reddy.
Ramakrishna questioned as to why Jaganmohan Reddy had not appointed BC leaders as regional coordinators and why he was giving priority to the Reddy leaders only.
Condemning the defections in the state, he said both Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu and the Opposition leader Jaganmohan Reddy were encouraging defections.
He said the defected leaders have no shame and are rank opportunists, he said and alleged that the main political parties were ready to spend Rs 20 crore for each Assembly constituency to win the elections. He lamented that the common people were not in a position to contest the elections.
