Chandrababu Lacks Sincerity On Special Status Issue: Vijayasai Reddy

YSRC MP Vijayasai Reddy once again lashed out at Telugu Desam Party chief Chandrababu Naidu for taking  U-turn on Special Category Status to Andhra Pradesh.  He shares his thoughts and opinions through Twitter.

In his recent tweet, the Rajya Sabha member asserted that  Naidu is showing his double standards in special status to the state and deceived the people of the state.  He asserted that the state will get Rs 3,500 crore under special status whereas Rs 25,000 crore will be sanctioned under the special package. He asserted that Naidu lacks sincerity on the issue. Here is the tweet.

Recently, AP Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi urging to grant special category status to Andhra Pradesh.  He expressed hope that the centre will accord SCS to the state in accordance with the promise made in Parliament.

YS Jagan Mohan Reddy in his letter stated that "I am writing this letter to seek your guidance and support in the light of a statement contained in the report of the Fifteenth Finance Commission tabled in the Parliament at the time of presentation of the Union Budget. The bifurcation has subjected the successor State of Andhra Pradesh to immense economic hardships."

He further added that "This leads to gross injustice to Andhra but 15th Finance Commission Report for 2020-21 clearly told that grant of SCS lies in the hands of central government only."
