Andhra Pradesh: TDP activists demand continuation of Anna Canteens

he Telugu Desam Party (TDP) district wing organised ‘Annadanam’ at the Municipal Corporation circle in Tirupati on Wednesday, in response to a call by the party high-command to organise free meals for the poor across the State.

The poor were deprived of ‘a morsel of food’ with the State government deciding to do away with Anna Canteens, launched during the erstwhile TDP regime, the party activists said demanding its continuation.

TDP Tirupati parliamentary constituency in-charge G. Narasimha Yadav, who offered food to the public along with Tirupati Assembly in-charge M. Sugunamma, said how the YSRCP government could claim to be welfare-oriented, if it was not even inclined to provide a square meal to the deserving poor.
