Cong, TDP expediting division: Jagan

Paklala (Chittoor dist),
Jan, 10, 2014: The degradation of political values have come to the fore in the
State Assembly with the suspension of YSRCP MLAs for raising the banner of a
united state and the Delhi arrogance should be fought tooth and nail giving
Telugu pride a victory of 30 MP seats in the ensuing elections, YS Jagan Mohan
Reddy has said.

“The arrogant Congress
Government has suspended Party floor leader YS Vijayamma along with all MLAs
and took them to police station as they firmly stood for Samaikyandhra while
the Congress and TDP, which have ganged up, went ahead to expedite the division
process and have immediately taken up discussion on the draft Bill in the absence
of our Party,” YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has said while addressing a public meeting
here on Friday.

While such an important issue
being taken up in the House neither Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy nor
leader of opposition N Chandrababu Naidu appear in the assembly and those who
voice the feelings of the 70 % of people are evicted out of the House to take
up the Bill, which has come to the State against the established parliamentary
procedures, he said.

Chandrababu Naidu is at his
worst in conducting himself as the leader of opposition. Instead of pointedly
questioning Sonia Gandhi as to how can the state be divided without taking the
assembly into confidence, he joins her in the process and without leaving his
chamber has been encouraging his MLAs to speak as per their regional
affiliations.

Chief Minister on the other
hand has been loyal to Sonia Gandhi and has been carrying out her orders
obediently and if any one questions the rationale behind the division or
demands to send back the Bill which harms the interests of over 70 % of the
population, they will be suspended and taken to police station.

This is the type of
politics that are in play in the State even as the nation has understood that
gross injustice is being done to Andhra Pradesh. Still Sonia Gandhi is going
ahead with the  division to see her son as
Prime Minister at the cost of the future of our children who will be deprived
of Hyderabad and jobs in the capital city developed by us over the past 60
years.

Chandrababu Naidu, who has
been seeking packages in lieu of division, had the audacity to say that the
youth can go Karnataka and Tamil Nadu for jobs. “Such leaders have no outlook
and are only interested in short term gains. When we have our own state why
should the youth go to other states and become second class citizens,” he
asked.

Farmers will be the worst
hit as water will become a scarce commodity and the upper riparian states will
squeeze every drop of it and the left over will drip in a scanty measure.

The Bill itself is a symbol
of Delhi dictatorship. In normal cases, an assembly resolution is first adopted
to separate any state which will be sent to the Centre which in turn sends a
draft Bill through the President to discuss the nitty-gritty.

“It always happened that
way but when it came to our state, Delhi has taken a decision and divided the
state and has sent the Bill for discussion. There is no assembly resolution and
when YSRCP talks of the procedure the party MLAs are suspended and baseless
allegations are being levelled against them.

Now the situation is clear
as to who are for Samaikyandhra. Those who are debating the Bill are in total
agreement for the division. We opposed the division and we are sent out of the
Assembly and Council.

The slogan that has been
reverberating from Kuppam to Srikakulam is Samaikyandhra and very soon
elections will come and the force of unity should reflect in the mandate and
teach the divisive forces a lesson. After getting a mandate we will decide as
to who will be the Prime Minister and we will support a candidate who agrees to
keep the state united,” he said.

The Samaikya Sankharavam
Yatra on its 13th day will roll over Chandragiri and Putalapattu
assembly constituencies.
