The YSRCP government is changing the names of the schemes being offered by the Central government and diverting funds for unproductive purposes, alleges S. Kasi Viswanatha Raju, convener of the Uttarandhra zone of the BJP’s campaign wing working to highlight the achievements of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
“The YSRCP is trying to project as its achievement the recent release of ₹10,000 crore by the Centre,” Mr. Raju, who is also an independent director in the Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL), told the media on May 30 (Tuesday), which also marked the completion of nine years of the Narendra Modi government at the Centre.
Listing the achievements of the Union government, Mr. Raju alleged that both the YSRCP government and the previous TDP dispensation had indulged in vote-bank politics and tried to show Mr. Modi’s in a poor light.
