Chandrababu's raw opportunism: YSRCP

Hyderabad: YSR Congress has said that the proposed public meeting of Chandrababu Naidu exposes his raw opportunism as he had promised from the same venue at Tirupati that the state would be given Special Category Status (SCS) if voted to power and went back on every other poll promise.

Speaking to reporters here on Sunday Party General Secretary Bhumana Karunakar Reddy said, it was from that same venue at Tirupati that Chandrababu Babu Naidu has promised to get SCS for the state for 15 years but even after four years in power he could not achieve it on hand and on the other he tried to subvert it and spoke ill of our leader who had been telling that the status is our right.

Four years after he had promised SCS, now he comes out of the coalition and addresses the people at the same venue thinking that peoples memory is short but he will be taught a fitting lesson at the hustings.

When our Party President YS Jagan Mohan Reddy was to participate in a candle light rally he was detained at the Vizag airport and the protest march demanding SCS was thwarted by Chandrababu Naidu government.

He has used force to foil all the agitation programmes on the issue and tried to gag the voice of the people misusing official machinery Chandrababu has never bothered about SCS and even tried to subvert it by bringing in special package issue and he has always worked to further his personal interests and not the state issues all the four years. Now he has been shamelessly coming to the same venue to spread the message that the Centre has gone back on its promise.

It was Chandrababu Naidu who is the main accused in the case and he crying foul is ridiculous. Not just SCS, he did not fulfil any of the poll promises within his purview. He has announced loan waiver to farmers and women self-help groups, unemployment stipend, free education from KG to PG, reservations to Kapu community and many more but did not fulfil even a single promise, he said.
