The YSRCP’s ‘Samajika Sadhikara’ bus yatra on its twelfth day saw a sea of people converging in Pamarru constituency in Krishna district where the party highlighted how the government had rendered social and political empowerment to the backward classes not just with the help of specially crafted welfare schemes but also by giving them political representation.
Ministers Merugu Nagarjuna, Jogi Ramesh, MPs Nandigama Suresh, Mopidevi Venkataramana, MLAs Kolusu Parthasaradhi, SK Mohammad Mustafa, along with local MLA Kaile Anil Kumar were the enthusiastic participants of the yatra today.
Commencing the public meeting by paying a floral tribute to the bronze statue of the late chief minister YS Rajasekhar Reddy, Social Welfare Minister Merugu Nagarjuna said, ‘Many political stalwarts have initiated movements to address and eliminate social disparities among the backward classes. CM Jagan's role in spearheading a similar social revolution in Andhra Pradesh will go down in history.’ He further emphasized how substantial financial investment and dedicated efforts towards the development of BC, SC, ST and Minorities by the YSRCP government was instrumental in driving social progress, on-ground development and equity among all sections.
Soon thereafter, Minister Nagarjuna cautioned the BC, SC, ST, and Minority communities not to place their trust on TDP Chief Chandrababu Naidu, for he had fooled the public many times for personal motives. Launching a scathing attack on Naidu, the Minister said, ‘In 2014, Chandrababu, Pawan Kalyan, and BJP formed an alliance. Chandrababu deceived the public by making over 600 empty promises. Chandrababu is the same man who made derogatory remarks against SCs. How can he even be a contestant against someone like CM Jagan, who has earned so much love and respect from the people for his efforts to provide quality and affordable healthcare for all. How can Chandrababu compete with a man who introduced English medium education for the underprivileged in government schools?’
Next in line to address the massive crowd was Housing Minister Jogi Ramesh. He began by praising CM Jagan for being the only CM who has lived up to every word he had promised. He said, ‘While CM Jagan was focusing on investing in human capital, Chandrababu, Lokesh and Pawan Kalyan were devising strategies to stop the progress of the marginalized.’
Soon thereafter, MP Mopidevi Venkataramana stated that, ‘ Until 2019, social empowerment remained a mere slogan for all leaders. However, since CM Jagan assumed office, he has relentlessly worked and championed the cause of social empowerment, ensuring 100% justice in this regard. CM Jagan has been unwavering in his efforts to uplift economically weaker communities through a range of welfare schemes. Furthermore, he has provided significant political representation to the BC, SC, ST, and Minority communities, who were previously used as a mere vote bank. This inclusivity is reflected in their increased presence in the state cabinet, nominated posts, mayorships, ZP chairperson positions, and four Rajya Sabha nominations! CM Jagan’s name will undoubtedly be remembered in history for these remarkable achievements.’
Babu..why was he desperate to form an alliance?
