Sathupalli (Khammam dist), April 27 : Assuring that YSRCP will implement all the welfare schemes named in its manifesto in Telangana as well, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has said that his Party will be a force to reckon with as YSR is still being seen as a visionary who balanced welfare and development in this region as well.
Addressing a road-show here on Sunday as part of his YSR Jana Bheri electioneering he said: “this is a battle between credibility and honesty on one side and conspiracy and opportunism on the other and I appeal you to vote for YSRCP fan symbol to bring back the golden era of YSR.”
Very soon I will be taking over as Chief Minister of Seemandhra, but it does not mean that this state will be neglected. YSR is in the hearts of all Telugu people and I assure you that all welfare schemes named in the manifesto will be implemented in Telangana as well.
The unfinished Odarpu Yatra will be continued by my sister Sharmila in this region. We come to know about the plight of people only through such mass contact programmes and I have learnt the way of life of the poorest of the poor during my Odarpu Yatra which finds its reflection in the manifesto, he said.
It is important for political leaders to mingle with people to know firsthand their problems and aspirations and I have spend time with many families and no leader has taken this line of approach so far, he said.
“We in an age of degenerated politics and we have to change the system and bring back YSR golden era. I appeal you to vote for YSRCP fan symbol to bring this dream into a reality,” he said.
Five years after YSR death still he is remembered by the people as his welfare schemes have touched every section of the society and he did not impose any fresh taxes or increase any fares while carrying out the welfare schemes which made him a model Chief Minister in the country.
Before his golden era, we have seen the dark age of Chandrababu Naidu who did not care for farmers, students, women and his policies were anti-people. Pensions and housing were meager and were carried out on quota system limiting the number of beneficiaries.
He has done away with all the poll promises by increasing the Rs 2 kg rice to Rs 5.25, lifted prohibition and encouraged belt shops. He is in the habit of forgetting poll promises after elections. Even now he is coming with promises aplenty.
He is promising of loan waivers, free cell phones and television sets and his past says that he is not in the habit of fulfilling the election promises.
The Congress government after the death of YSR has been very taxing. It has burdened the people heavily and did not bring in a single new project and has brought down the values of political system.
We have to bring back credibility into the system by rejecting the divisive and opportunists and electing a responsive and responsible government, he said. INN
