CM not sparing even toilets from tax: Anuradha
Enemy of Anna Canteens can’t ask votes
AMARAVATI: TDP State General Secretary Panchumarty Anuradha on Monday accused the Jaganmohan Reddy Government of breaking the backbones of all sections of common people in Andhra Pradesh by increasing and imposing unimaginable taxes.
Anuradha said Jagan Reddy’s Tughlaq rule got exposed when he slapped tax even on garbage. The general public were being squeezed in the name of property tax. The CM could not take up or complete a single irrigation project. He had no right to impose tax on water.
Addressing a press conference here, the TDP leader asserted the day was not far off for the people to bid their farewell to the YSRCP rule. The Chandrababu regime protected the self-respect of the poor women by constructing toilets but Jagan Reddy was not sparing even toilets from tax. At every step and in all aspects, the YSRCP Government has caused a lot of misery and suffering to the people.
Anuradha warned that the people would only revolt more if the present rulers continued their misuse of the police to persecute the opposition leaders. False cases were being filed against all questioning voices. The public were being harassed with false arrests. CM Jagan Reddy was not able to complete even the Polavaram lifeline project of the AP people.
The TDP leader recalled that former Minister Nara Lokesh got LED bulbs installed in every village in the State during the TDP rule. But now, the Jagan rule was so inefficient that it was not able to keep these bulbs glowing. The failures, misdeeds and corruption of the Chief Minister became a big disadvantage for the AP people. In every sector, the AP State was lagging behind all other States in the country.
Anuradha said Anna Canteens established by Chandrababu Naidu quenched the hunger of common public all over the State. The Jagan regime has cancelled those Anna Canteens. The CM expressed his inability to provide food at Rs. 5 to the poorer sections. While cancelling all such pro-people programmes, CM Jagan and his MLAs were making false claims about their welfare programmes.
The TDP leader deplored that the AP Police had totally surrendered to the ruling YSRCP. Doubts arose whether the DGP really passed the IPS or whether he had any idea about the constitution and the country’s laws. Would the YCP regime allow only ganja growing people to live in AP? The Jagan regime was making the lives of common public increasingly difficult with each passing day.
