Will revive welfare, development programmes for SCs, STs if voted to power, says Nandamuri Balakrishna

Calling Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy a “Dalitha Drohi” (Traitor of Dalits), the Hindupur MLA and actor Nandamuri Balakrishna said that the TDP-BJP-JSP alliance-led government, after coming to power, will revive the welfare and development programmes for the SC/ST sections in the State.

Addressing the ‘Swarnandhra Sakaram’ public meeting at Nandikotkuru town on Monday, Apil 15, Mr. Balakrishna said that during the last five years, the Jagan Mohan Reddy government had unleashed terror against the Dalits.

Referring to the deaths of government doctor Sudhakar in Visakhapatnam and YSRCP leader’s driver Subramanyam in East Godavari district and cases of tonsuring Dalits, the actor-politician said that the YSRCP regime had turned a nightmare for Dalits.
