YSR Congress Party to voice people's concerns in Andhra Pradesh Legislature session

HYDERABAD: The main opposition YSR Congress Party today said it will voice the people's concerns on various issues which the TDP government has failed to address during the Andhra Pradesh Legislature's winter session commencing here tomorrow.

"The legislature party which met under the chairmanship of YSRC president Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy has decided to take up the public issues and press for a categorical reply as the state has failed on all fronts," party MLAs G Srikanth Reddy and others told reporters here after the meeting.

The loan waiver of farmers and DWACRA (special scheme for women), farmers' suicides, regularisation of contract workers, law and order and weavers' issues will be among those which the party would be raising in the session.

"We will be the voice of the people and will press for a firm reply on all the issues and will scuttle any move from the state to escape by giving mere statements to pre-empt discussion on core issues," he said.

"Farmers' suicides and worsening law and order situation with misuse of official machinery by foisting false cases against political adversaries, besides the capital issue and loan waiver, will be taken up during the session," Reddy said.

The six-month period of the state government is a "total flop" as not a single promise has been implemented and though TDP is part of the NDA coalition, the state has not benefited in any way.

Though the diesel prices dropped six times, it did not reflect in the prices of essential commodities, which need to be questioned, he said.
