Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee vice president Sripathy Prakasam on Sunday urged Telugu Desam Party MLA from Kondepi, Dola Balaveeranjenaya Swamy, to back the Opposition’s Presidential candidate Yashwant Sinha.
Drumming up support for Mr. Sinha on the eve of Presidential election, the Congress leader contended that the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) had done grave injustice to Andhra Pradesh post bifurcation and had failed to keep its poll promise to grant Special Category Status (SCS) for 15 years.
