CM Naidu insulting Dalits, YSRCP files statewide complaints

Tadepalli, July 4: YSRCP SC Cell President TJR Sudhakar Babu condemned Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu for his repeated derogatory remarks against the Dalit community. 

Speaking at the YSRCP Central Office, he announced statewide police complaints over Naidu’s recent statements, which insulted a deceased Dalit, Singaiah, by comparing him to a "dog," demeaning the entire community.

Sudhakar Babu highlighted Naidu’s prejudice, evident in his failure to respect Singaiah, who died during a Palnadu rally. “Instead of supporting the bereaved family, Naidu shamefully politicized the death to target YSRCP leader YS Jagan Mohan Reddy,” he said.

He cited Naidu’s history of offensive remarks, including those by associates like Adinarayana Reddy, who mocked Dalits’ education, and Chintamaneni Prabhakar, who questioned their political rights. “This is Naidu’s final warning,” Sudhakar Babu declared, emphasizing YSRCP’s legal action against such language.

Naidu’s government prioritized real estate and kickbacks over public welfare, neglecting farmers and targeting Jagan with vindictive actions. Sudhakar Babu referenced past tragedies under Naidu, like 29 deaths during Godavari Pushkaralu, questioning why Naidu labels those accidents but blames Jagan for Singaiah’s death. “Naidu’s vile politics are exposed,” he said, noting circulated video evidence.

Contrasting Naidu’s callousness with YS Jagan’s compassion, Sudhakar Babu cited Jagan’s aid to those in distress. He accused Naidu and Minister Nara Lokesh of fostering violence, citing attacks on a YSRCP sarpanch and Dalit youth in Tenali. “Naidu’s ‘Red Book’ incites violence. Does this regime deserve to govern?” he asked. The YSRCP SC Cell demanded legal action against Naidu and a comprehensive probe into Singaiah’s death, taking into serious account the statements made by his wife.
