Tadepalli, 14 October: YSR Congress Party State Coordinator Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy strongly criticized Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu for running a diversion drama to escape from the exposure of the fake liquor mafia operating under TDP rule. Speaking at a meeting of YSRCP State Secretaries (Parliament) at the party Central Office today, Sajjala said Chandrababu is behaving shamelessly and irresponsibly out of fear of being caught in the fake liquor scam. He said that fake liquor is being openly manufactured and distributed under the protection of the TDP government, and instead of ordering a transparent investigation, Chandrababu is trying to falsely implicate YSRCP leaders.
Sajjala said that the so-called liquor verification app launched by Chandrababu is a self-goal that proves the existence of large-scale spurious liquor in the state. “In the history of India, no Chief Minister ever launched an app to check whether liquor is fake or original. If Chandrababu has brought such an app, it means fake liquor is being produced and sold under his regime. Belt shops and permit rooms are running 24x7 across the state under TDP supervision, and fake liquor is being door-delivered,” he said. He reminded that during YSRCP rule, every liquor bottle was monitored with QR-code supply tracking to ensure accountability from distillery to sales, preventing adulteration and black marketing.
Describing TDP’s tactics as cheap diversion politics, Sajjala said: “Suddenly a man is brought from Africa, given red carpet treatment, and used to take political revenge. They are dragging the name of former minister Jogi Ramesh without a shred of evidence. These conspiracies prove only one thing, Chandrababu is terrified because the fake liquor mafia controlled by his party has been exposed.”
Addressing party leaders, Sajjala asserted that YSRCP will fight back strongly against TDP’s malicious propaganda. He said party positions come with responsibility and commitment and called upon state secretaries to strengthen the organisation from the village level upwards. He stressed the immediate formation of ward and village committees, efficient coordination with regional coordinators, utilisation of social media for ideological clarity, and identifying committed workers to give them prominence in party committees. “Only a strong organisational foundation will help us counter political conspiracies and protect people from TDP misrule,” he added.
Sajjala concluded by saying that the people of Andhra Pradesh are watching the good governance and integrity of YS Jagan Mohan Reddy and contrasted it with the corruption, mafia-politics and vindictive governance of Chandrababu Naidu. “The truth will prevail, and we will expose every lie of the TDP government,” he asserted.
