Invoking the Mahabharata, Congress leaders on Monday termed the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP), Telugu Desam Party (TDP), Jana Sena Party (JSP) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) as the ‘Dushta Chatushtayam’ of Andhra Pradesh, claiming that they were all under one umbrella led by the Modi-Shah duo at the Centre.
Leading a rally of 2,000 activists through the streets of Nagari, All India Congress Committee (AICC) joint secretary Krishna Allavaru and Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) working president N. Tulasi Rao marched to the municipal office, protesting the hike in power tariff and rise in prices of essential commodities.
Addressing a public meeting largely attended by workers of the power loom sector, Mr. Allavaru said it was high time that the people of the State questioned the ‘mindless’ administration of the Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy government. “People of the State must realise that they are being politically and economically exploited due to the YSR Congress Party’s nexus with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) at the Centre,” said Mr. Allavaru, who is also the All India Youth Congress in-charge.
