TDP’s Super Six, a Super Flop
Tadepalli, December 10: YSRCP State General Secretary SV Satish Kumar Reddy launched a scathing attack on Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu, questioning how the government claims the GSDP is rising while repeatedly complaining that “the treasury is empty.” Speaking at the YSRCP Central Office, Satish Reddy said that despite tall claims and PowerPoint presentations, people across Andhra Pradesh are suffering, shopkeepers have seen sales drop by half, and not a single visible improvement has reached common citizens in the last 18 months of coalition rule. He challenged the CM to visit any small shop or street vendor and ask directly whether their income has increased.
Satish Reddy reminded the public that the TDP’s much-publicised “Super Six” promises have turned into a “super flop.” Chandrababu promised 20 lakh jobs and ₹3,000 monthly unemployment allowance but has not provided employment to even one person. Farmers were assured Rs. 20,000 per year, yet in two years, they received only Rs. 10,000, and many were denied support on technical grounds. The promise of Rs. 1,500 monthly assistance to every woman has evaporated completely; the three free gas cylinders scheme reached only a fraction of households; and the free bus travel scheme for women has not been funded even by a single rupee to RTC despite lakhs of women using the service daily.
He condemned the government for abandoning farmers, pointing out that no crop in the state today has a remunerative price and that Chandrababu lacks the courage to provide MSP support like the previous YS Jagan administration did for crops such as citrus, banana, onions, and tomatoes. On the Parakamani cash theft case, Satish Reddy clarified that the accused Ravi Kumar was caught during YSRCP rule, confessed, and voluntarily surrendered his assets to TTD, while Chandrababu now twists facts to mislead the public. The CM also continues to sensationalise the Tirupati laddu controversy without understanding tender norms and quality-testing protocols which lie with labs and officials, not the Chief Minister.
Satish Reddy ridiculed Chandrababu’s claim that groundwater levels improved under the coalition regime, asking whether even a single check-dam was constructed after May 2024. “Rain was given by God; the credit is being claimed by Chandrababu,” he said. He further exposed the CM’s misinformation on PPAs: while Jagan procured power at Rs. 2.49 per unit to protect farmers, Chandrababu, after assuming office, purchased the same power at Rs. 3.20 per unit.
On education, he highlighted hard data from the UDISE portal: under YS Jagan, school enrolment increased from 38.97 lakh to 40.59 lakh, but under Chandrababu it has fallen drastically to 36.43 lakh. “Who is responsible for the dropouts now?” he asked, calling it shameful that the CM tries to shift blame onto the previous government.
He also questioned Deputy CM Pawan Kalyan’s hypocrisy: while he performed rituals claiming Tirupati laddus were “impure,” he is silent today despite 1.80 lakh kg of beef being seized in Visakhapatnam. “Is Sanatana dharma only selective?” Satish Reddy asked.
Finally, he criticised the government for protecting key accused in the duplicate liquor scam, particularly TDP leader Jayachandra Reddy of Tamballapalle, who has not been arrested despite being a prime suspect, while BC leader and YSRCP member Jogi Ramesh was jailed without any link to the case. Satish Reddy concluded that Chandrababu’s governance is built on lies, diversions, and broken promises, and the people of Andhra Pradesh have seen through this false narrative.
