Deeksha to go on till Govt comes down

Hyderabad, April 4, 2013: YSR Congress Party honourary president Smt. Y. S. Vijayamma on Thursday warned that the ‘Current Satyagraha’ of party leaders will continue till the Government comes down and announces reduction of the hiked power tariff.

Speaking at her fasting camp at the new MLA quarters here on the third day of her indefinite fast against the Government’s policy of hiking power charges frequently, she said it is very unfortunate that the Government has not been caring for the agitations by the opposition parties against the power tariff hike.

“We will not stop our agitation till the power charges are reduced,” she said.

Meanwhile, more and more people are visiting the fasting camp and enquiring about the health of the fasting YSRCP leaders.

Left leaders call on Vijayamma

Left leaders called on Smt. Vijayamma for the second consecutive day on Thursday at her indefinite fasting camp and expressed their solidarity for the fasting YSRCP leaders.

CPI MLA Gunda Mallesh and CPM MLA Julakanti Ranga Reddy met Smt. Vijayamma and other fasting MLAs and MLCs and enquired about their health.

The Left leaders said Government seems to be unconcerned about the people’s demand to reduce the power tariff hike. “The days of the Government are numbered,” they warned speaking on the occasion.

On Wednesday, CPM leader Raghavulu called on Smt. Vijayamma and expressed his solidarity to the YSR Congress Party’s agitation against the power tariff hike.
