Congress is committed to implementing A.P. Reorganisation Act, granting SCS, and stopping VSP privatisation, says Shashi Tharoor

Congress Working Committee (CWC) member Shashi Tharoor says that things are looking bright for the Congress party after the first three phases of general elections, and the BJP has lost control of its narrative, and has no answers to the questions on unemployment, rising prices and fall in income.

Mr. Shashi Tharoor was in the city on Friday to campaign on behalf of the Congress candidates for Visakhapatnam Lok Sabha seat P. Satya Reddy and for Assembly constituencies G. Srinivasa Rao (East), L. Raja Rao (North), V. Santosh (South), Hasini Varma (Bheemunipatnam) and P. Bhagath (Pendurthi).

Interacting with the media, Mr. Shashi Tharoor wondered what have the people got after 10 years of BJP rule. “The Special Category Status (SCS), the Polavaram project and other assurances given in the A.P. Reorganisation Act have not been fulfilled. This election is about you (voters) and the Congress is committed to its ‘Nyay’ manifesto,” he asserted.
