We are not interested in ‘Aadudam Andhra’, but ‘Adugudam Andhra’, says students’ union

The Members of All India Students’ Federation (AISF) staged a demonstration here on December 27 (Wednesday), demanding that the government fill up the vacant posts, release funds for clearing the pending mess bills and the upkeep of the hostels.

In an oblique reference to the ongoing ‘Aadudam Andhra’ programme, the students played cricket and kabaddi as a form of their protest at Lenin Centre. “We are not interested in Aadudam Andhra, but Adugudam Andhra. Where are the jobs for youth? Where are the funds for hostels? Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy is trying to cheat students and divert their attention from important issues by coming up with programmes such as Aadudam Andhra ahead of the elections,” they said.

AISF national general secretary Dinesh Singarajan and State general secretary Siva Reddy said no matter how much Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy tried, he couldn’t win the trust of the unemployed youth anymore.
