TDP flays YSRCP for delay in pension distribution, discarding Polavaram project

Chittoor district Telugu Desam Party (TDP) president C.R. Rajan reviewed the election campaign in the district along with Chittoor Lok Sabha TDP candidate and former IRS officer Daggumalla Prasada Rao and TDP, BJP, and JSP cadre, here on Friday.

Addressing a press conference, Mr. Rajan claimed that the TDP government pioneered all welfare schemes whereas all administration systems in the State were destroyed under the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) rule.

Mr. Rajan alleged that the YSRCP government was in a dire state, unable to distribute the social pensions. Mr. Prasad Rao also questioned why the State government did not use the same machinery to distribute pensions, which it had previously used to sell movie tickets and liquor bottles.
