Demand for Nagari’s merger with Sri Balaji district intensifies

The demand for the inclusion of the Nagari Assembly constituency into Sri Balaji district is slowly gaining momentum from all sections of public and political groups.

The Nagari and Puttur municipalities have already unanimously passed the resolution at the council meetings, submitting the same to the district administration. It is expected that all the 94 panchayats and 5 mandal parishads in the constituency would be completing the formality of submitting their resolutions in support of the merger with Sri Balaji district.

The Telugu Desam Party(TDP) cadres in the constituency have stepped up their agitation, demanding that Nagari MLA R.K. Roja insist on the constituency’s merger with Sri Balaji district. The TDP cadres had launched a campaign promoting a feeler among the public that the demand could be achieved provided Ms. Roja takes it up seriously, and, if required, even get ready to resign to her MLA post.
