Kakinada: As part of the call given at a state-level, the East Godavari unit of YSRCP is conducting the fifth ''Vanchana Pai Garjana'' protest meet in Kakinada today.
Attended by senior party leaders, MPs and ex MPs, MLAs, MLCs, the protest started with a prayer meet followed by speeches from various leaders such as Mekapati Rajamohan Reddy, Botsa Satyanarayana, YV Subba Reddy, former MLC Kanna Babu,K Veerabhadra Swamy, former minister and MLC P Subhash Chandrabose etc.
The meeting is being held in protest against the failure of the Central and the State government led by Chandrababu Naidu to deliver the promise to accord the Special Category Status (SCS) for Andhra Pradesh.
Former MLC Kanna Babu came down heavily on Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu for his utter failure to implement various promises made during 2014 polls. Though four years have passed, Naidu never bothered to implement these promises. This was nothing but betrayal (vanchana), and he has spoke about the Special Category Status but till date there has been nothing done about it. YSRCP has given a call to all parties and people to come forward and unitedly protest against the TDP led Government for their utter failure in granting special category status.
