Telangana results a slap on the face of Congress and TDP

Could Chandrababu build the Amaravati capital city in the last four years? In Chandrababu's rule, the electricity charges, fuel prices, RTC bus charges, house tax , school fees etc. have skyrocketed. Chandrababu, who promised to provide nine hours of electricity to farmers, did not keep his word. Besides, the TDP is collecting huge revenue in the form of electricity bills, YSRCP chief YS Jagan Mohan Reddy said in Narsanapeta on Sunday.

"The YSRCP government will provide Rs 15,000 per year to all mothers with school-going children, Rs 20,000 for hostel allowance to students in addition to the complete waiver of college fees. Under YSR Cheyootha scheme, women would be able to draw loans without hassles like bribes," he said to the public.

If YSRCP comes to power, the Arogyasri scheme, which saved many lives during Rajanna Rajyam, will be reinstated along with the 108 ambulances which had saved many lives under YSR rule, he pointed out. The 108 vehicles used to reach the patient within 20 minutes of intimation, he said. Rajanna Rajyam had an ambulance per mandal while today, not even a single ambulance is available per constituency, he remarked.

In 2014, Chandrababu vowed to ban all liquor shops in the state. But, after four years years of his rule, he has ensured that every village had a liquor shop, YS Jagan said.

Chandrababu proposed to forge an alliance with the TRS and after KTR rejected the offer, he went to New Delhi to join hands with the Congress. On 8 June, 2018, the Congress released a book on Chandrababu's corruption and failures. Within few months from the release, the people of Telangana gave a mandate that was a slap on the face of the Congress and TDP.

The TRS said it would enter Andhra Pradesh politics after Rs 140 crore belonging to the TDP were caught during the Telangana elections. Chandrababu, in response, reacted like a chameleon, raising the issue of the Special Category Status this time around. "How could Chandrababu ask KTR for an alliance with TRS during the last rites of former MP Nandamuri Harikrishna?" he asked.

YS Jagan explained the benefits of YSR Cheyootha scheme in Navaratnas. Through Village Secretariats, transparency, efficiency and employability would be improved in the State's governance, he said. Ration cards, ration supplies, pensions, unemployment allowance and other government benefits would be delivered to the homes in YSRCP rule, he asserted.
