CPI(M) politburo member B.V. Raghavulu on Saturday stressed the need for the State to have a development model that has no scope for inequalities. If such a system is not brought in, the poor would become poorer regardless of the tall claims made by the government.
He observed that public money was being looted in the State and that there was little development because the government was obsessed with welfare, which too was not as great as it was projected.
Inaugurating a two-day seminar titled ‘Comprehensive development of Andhra Pradesh- Alternative ways’ organised by the CPI(M) here, Mr. Raghavulu said people’s welfare took a beating as the policies of liberalisation gained a tighter grip.
