Former TDP ministers accuse CM Jagan of reneging on his poll promise of scrapping CPS

Former Ministers and senior Telugu Desam Party (TDP) leaders Paritala Sunitha and Palle Raghunatha Reddy, on Monday, called on Mallesh, the government teacher who, distressed over the implementation of the Contributory Pension Scheme for teachers, attempted to kill himself on Sunday.

They visited Mallesh at the government hospital where he is receiving treatment.

Speaking to the media on this occasion, Ms Sunitha said that it was unfortunate that Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy came to power by making false promises but failed to fulfil them, leading to distress among various sections, particularly the government employees.
