What's With Chandrababu And The Capital Area?

Amaravathi: The Government that is hastily
shifting its employees to the capital region is just ignoring the farmers who
have sacrificed for the sake of the capital. Chandrababu is simply passing time
in Velagapudi, not bothering to even lay eye on other villages. He is scared of
being confronted about compensation promised to the farmers.

Lies told at that time

Chandrababu’s Government has uttered
many lies for snatching lands from farmers. Many false promises were done like
allocation of plots in the same village at the same location to the farmers
giving away their lands, Government jobs to the educated members of the farmers’
households, free food in Anna canteens to be established in all villages and
cities, old age homes for the aged and pensions for agricultural labourers.

All the promises ignored

Hasty trials are being made to give away
the lands in capital area to companies of Singapore. Nobody seems to be
bothered about giving plots to the farmers. Minister Narayana, however, is
mentioning the plots now and then.

Farmers awaiting their
benefits

Chandrababu entered into agreement with 24,000
farmers about paying their taxes without fail every year with additional 10% as
interest. As part of this, Rs.30,000-50,000 was promised to every farmer. At
first, the payment was done to gain the trust of the farmers and convince the
others. But this year’s tax has not been paid.

Pension that should be given to farmers
also is at stake. Almost 50,000 agricultural labourers lost their livelihood.
Showing lame excuses, only 38,000 of them were concluded to be eligible for
pension. Even from them, only 20,000 of them were filtered to be eligible,
citing various reasons. They have been roaming around CRDA office since March
due to not receiving their pension.

That explains his distance
from the villages

Knowing all these facts well,
Chandrababu and his ministers are staying away from those villages except
Velagapudi. Scared of being questioned, they are just keeping officials
available for people while they are keeping distance.
