Strengthen yourself, strengthen party: Vijayamma

Jogipet, June 25, 2013:
Calling upon the party rank and file to strengthen themselves and strengthen
the party, YSR Congress Party honourary president Smt. Y.S. Vijayamma on
Tuesday asked the party leaders to face the forthcoming Panchayat polls in
unison and bring victory to the party in the forthcoming polls.

“Let us work together
keeping aside our misunderstandings, if any and strive to defeat the cunning
and covert attempts of Congress and TDP which may unleash their money and
liquor power in the local polls,” she said stressing on the need to have
coordination among leaders at different stages.

Smt. Vijayamma was
addressing the party regional meet on Panchayat polls at Jogipet in Medak
district.

We must work for
fulfilling the aspirations of YSR and achieving the aims of YSRCP Chief Sri
Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, she said, and added that this process should begin with
winning the local body polls.

She said the hamlets
and villages have suffered heavily for the last two and half years due to the
delay in conducting the local body polls. “The situation in villages would have
been completely different if the elections to the 22 Zilla Parishads, 21, 534
Panchayats, 16,168 MPTCs, 182 municipalities, 19 corporations had been held in
time and 2.5 lakh people’s representatives elected,” she said.

Reiterating that YSR
always respected the Telangana sentiment, Smt. Vijayamma observed Sri Jagan
Mohan Reddy too has highest regards for the people of Telangana.

Dwelling at length on
the welfare schemes implemented by YSR, Smt. Vijayamma said the party is
committed to implement the same in all sincerity after coming to power.

Lashing out at TDP
chief Chandrababu Naidu, she said Naidu had written in his book ‘Manasuloni Maata’ that there was no need to allot
funds to villages and asked the people not to believe his false promises.  

Earlier, Smt. Vijayamma
observed a 2-minute silence in memory of Telangana martyrs and paid rich
tributes them.
