Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, at the fag end of the Cabinet meeting on June 7 (Wednesday), reportedly dropped enough hints that the government was not mulling going for early elections in Andhra Pradesh.
“In fact, the Chief Minister has directed the Ministers and the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) leaders to work hard for the coming nine months,” a Minister told The Hindu after conclusion of the Cabinet meeting.
“The Chief Minister said that in 2019, the Election Commission of India (ECI) had issued the notification for the general elections in March. We are now in June. In case the ECI releases the notification again in March 2024, there will hardly be nine months time for us. So, work hard and spare no efforts to win the general elections,” the Minister said quoting Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy.
