Andhra Pradesh: YSRCP, TDP ruined the State, says Somu Veerraju

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) State president Somu Veerraju has said that both the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) and the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) governments have ruined Andhra Pradesh.

“Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy is trying to cover up his failures by propagating lies on the floor of the Legislature. Both the parties will pay for their follies in the 2024 elections,” said Mr. Veerraju after inaugurating street corner meetings as part of the BJP’s ‘ Praja Poru’ campaign here on Monday.

Mr. Veerraju said that TDP national president N. Chandrababu Naidu, during his Chief Ministerial tenure, had not given much importance to the development. “Mr. Naidu had implemented populist schemes such as Pasupu Kumkuma, while his successor Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy pushed the State backwards by implementing irrational policies such as the one to split the capital under the guise of decentralisation,” said Mr. Veerraju.
