The Telugu Desam Party (TDP) will begin a campaign to promote its ‘mini manifesto’, released at the Rajamahendravaram Mahanadu recently.
As part of it, the party will on June 23 launch a ‘Bus Yatra’ across five Lok Sabha Constituencies from Kadiri. The party intends to tour 10 Assembly Constituencies in Hindupur and Anantapur LS Constituencies by July 2, said former ministers Kalava Srinivasulu and Paritala Sunitha and Sri Sathya Sai District unit president B.K. Parthasarathy during a joint press conference here on Saturday.
They criticised the YSRCP government for taking loans just to fund its welfare schemes and not paying salaries to the government employees and not improving the State’s revenues. Mr. Srinivasulu said irrigation was being neglected in the State now whereas the TDP government had invested ₹65,000 crore in it during its rule.
