Naidu is adviser to Govt: Sharmila

YSR Congress Party president Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy’s sister Sharmila described TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu as chief  adviser to the anti-people policies of Kiran Kumar Reddy Government and made fun of his impractical promises to the people.

Addressing people at an impromptu public meeting at Tambapuram during the course of her eighth day Padayatra in Anantapuram district on Thursday, Sharmila came down heavily on Naidu for not bringing down the anti-people Congress Government.

She said Government has appointed Naidu as its chief adviser as he once described agriculture as sheer waste in his book ‘Manasuloni Maata’.

“Doing Padayatra is a necessity for us as we don’t have enough MLAs to topple the anti-people Government. Naidu has enough number of MLAs to bring down the Congress Government. But why is he not doing that? This indicates he is in cahoots with the Congress Government,” Sharmila observed.

Sharmila said people are suffering heavily with the anti-people policies of the Government but Naidu has chosen to take up the Yatra instead opting for no-confidence motion. “Students want to read but there is no power supply for them to read their books. Neither is there full fee reimbursement scheme for poor students to continue their higher education studies,” Sharmila said.

YSR introduced the fee reimbursement scheme with a view to ensure that at least one student in a poor family would be able to pursue higher education but the present Government has diluted the scheme unceremoniously imposing heavy burden on the common man.

Asking people not to lose heart, Sharmila consoled them saying that one day her brother Jagan would come out of the jail to take care of them and bring back the Rajanna Rajyam.
