Lella Appireddy flays TDP

Amaravati, Feb 15: YSRCP General Secretary Lella Appireddy flayed TDP for distorting the panchayat poll results and said that Chandrababu Naidu has been changing his stance to cover up his poll debacle.
Addressing a press conference here on Monday, Appireddy said that people have lost faith in TDP and have shifted to YSRCP as can be seen  by the GP poll results.

He said that Chandrababu Naidu who backed SEC Nimmagadda Ramesh until elections has now changed his stance and is  going against SEC by alleging irregularities in the ballot form, though it was Naidu who demanded to conduct panchayat polls by ballot. 
Speaking in regard to TDP agitations for the Visakhapatnam Steel Plant (VSP), he said that the process was initially started during the TDP term way back in 2017, where former Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had released papers regarding the privatization of VSP and TDP had maintained silence despite being part of Union Government. He stated that TDP leaders have no moral right to call for protests on VSP issue.
He further said that people were laughing at the  remarks of Lokesh in Vizag and suggested him to start an indefinite fast to save VSP. He assured that the State government shall protect the steel plant and YSRCP leaders are ready to make sacrifices as and when needed.
