Do not walk into YSRCP trap again: Sharmila
APCC president Y.S. Sharmila on Friday urged people not to walk into the trap laid by the YSR Congress Party chief Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy yet again in this elections.
Addressing a meeting at Thiruvuru in Krishna district, she said the Chief Minister had visited this place ve years ago to shower promises on the local residents who believed him and voted him to power. Mr. Jagan had promised that his government would construct irrigation projects to bring water to this region from Nagarjuna Sagar, that 300 tanks and a balancing reservoir would be constructed to full the needs of the people of this region.
Ms. Sharmila said acknowledging the fact that many people in this region had suered from kidney problems due to consumption of ¡uoridated water, the Chief Minister had assured them a separate reservoir to take care of the drinking water needs of the local population. Besides, he had also promised to establish mango processing and cold storage units and to start an ITI college. But none of the promises were implemented in the last ve years, she said. The State Congress president said after sleeping over his list of promises in the last ve years, Mr. Jagan had now embarked on “Siddham” , yet another State-wide yatra to make a fresh set of promises and take people for yet another round of ride.
Addressing a meeting at Chintalapudi, Ms. Sharmila said the local sitting MLA from the ruling party V.R. Eliza was forced to leave the party and join the Congress, as he was unable to implement any development projects in his constituency in the absence of funds denied to him by the party leadership.
