-3-yr operational failure caused diaphragm breach
-False cases started after Mahanadu success
-Uncultured comments on TDP over Atmakur bypoll
-TDP chief holds zoom conference
AMARAVATI: TDP National President and former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu on Thursday blamed Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy for reversing the fate of Polavaram with his ‘reverse tendering policies’.
Naidu said the Jagan Government was so frustrated over the roaring success of Mahanadu that once again false cases were being filed to harass TDP sympathisers in the name of social media posts.
Addressing a zoom conference with party leaders, the TDP chief accused the ruling YSRCP of making unethical and uncultured comments with regard to the Atmakur by-election. As a disciplined party, the TDP was following a tradition not to field its candidate against a family member of the deceased sitting candidate in any bypoll.
Naidu asserted that their party did not field its candidate in Badvel by-election and for the same reason, it was not fielding its candidate in Atmakur now. There was a general impression that Jagan Reddy was not able to rule the State. This was why the CM might go to midterm elections in the whole State anytime.
Chandrababu Naidu deplored that Jagan Reddy had destroyed the State’s lifeline project of Polavaram with his massive failures. Jagan spoke greatly about the results of his reverse tenders but now the same became a huge setback for the project. The State Government did not follow the directions of the Centre, which eventually caused irreparable loss to Polavaram.
The TDP chief recalled how the Jagan regime changed the agency though the Centre suggested against that. The YCP Government should take 100 percent responsibility for damage done to Polavaram diaphragm wall. Very poor operation of the project caused huge losses. Jagan Reddy promised to complete Polavaram in 2020 itself but he has failed to do so even in 2022.
Naidu said the YCP rulers were frustrated over the continuing State-wide discussion on the super success of Mahandu. This was why the Jagan regime was hatching a conspiracy to harass people in the name of social media posts.
Chandrababu Naidu said that the dire situation of AP was evident from the fact that Jagan Reddy has brought Rs. 9,500 Cr of loans in just one month. It had become a routine for the YCP goonda rulers to launch attacks on the employees. The attack on AE Surya Kiran by YCP MLA Jakkampudi Raja was condemnable.
Naidu asked what message the Chief Minister was sending by keeping silent on such attacks by the YCP leaders on the employees.
