YSRCP Vijayawada West Assembly candidate Shaik Asif on Wednesday, May 1, said the party’s manifesto ‘Navaratnalu Plus’, promised a new vision for Andhra Pradesh.
Interacting with voters of the constituency as part of campaigning, Mr. Asif called his political opponent from TDP-JSP-BJP alliance Y. Satyanarayana (Sujana) Chowdary “Andhra Mallya” and pointed out that he was accused of financial bungling in the past.
Mr. Asif said the BJP leaders at the Centre made no qualms in admitting that they were opposed to reservations to Muslim minorities. “How can people who have been hurting the sentiments of Muslim minorities, now seek their votes?” he asked.
