Next week, on July 25 the new party chief will be leading a protest demonstration at the Indira Park, Dharna Chowk demanding the government to fulfil the poll-eve promise of constructing the two-bedroom housing scheme for the poor along with the intended beneficiaries, said party sources.
Meanwhile, the party leaders including Gudur Narayana Reddy and N.V. Subash described the meeting of Opposition parties at Bengaluru as an act of “opportunism” and formation of new alliance as a “big fraud”.
They charged that “corrupt” leaders of the Opposition parties of the country have come together to form a fresh clique and described the newly formed ‘INDIA Alliance’ as a ‘Gang of Corrupts’. The alliance has been formed only to loot the country, they added in a press release.
