Rajya Sabha member and YSR Congress Party’s (YSRCP) regional coordinator of north Andhra region Y.V. Subba Reddy, on Tuesday, alleged that former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu and other opposition leaders were playing with lives of senior citizens by completely disturbing the disbursement of pensions across the State.
Mr. Subba Reddy was the chief guest for the party’s review meeting organised by YSRCP MLA Sambangi Venkata China Appala Naidu in Bobbili of Vizianagaram district. Speaking on the occasion, he said that 60 lakh elderly and others dependent on pension were facing untold miseries with the barring of volunteers from the distribution of pension amount.
“TDP-JSP targeted the volunteers’ system right from the beginning as people of all sections could avail the services at their door steps. Now, they used election code as a pretext to prevent the distribution of pensions. Strangely, they also staged a protest over the delay of the distribution of pension amount. People will teach a lesson to the opposition parties,” said Mr. Subba Reddy.
