Minister for Women and Child Welfare K.V. Usha Sricharan on August 21 (Tuesday) accused Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national president N. Chandrababu Naidu of resorting to deceptive politics over the fake voters’ issue and levelling false allegations against the YSRCP government.
Addressing the media, Ms. Usha Sricharan alleged that the names of fake voters were largely included in the electoral rolls during the TDP’s tenure. “The TDP, scared of defeat in the coming Assembly elections, is now crying hoarse over the fake voters’ issue,” said the Minister.
In a democratic set-up, the Minister said, they ( the TDP) were at liberty to lodge complaints with the Election Commission of India (ECI) or any other authority of their choice. “However, people of the State are well versed with the truth. Mr. Naidu always creates confusion among the people and hurls baseless allegations against the government for political gain,” she said.
