CPI welcomes HC verdict on GO No 1
Vijayawada: Welcoming the High Court judgment on the GO No 1, CPI state council secretary K Ramakrishna said here on Thursday that Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy should take a wise decision and withdraw the impugned order immediately.
Ramakrishna was congratulated by his followers here after the High Court delivered the judgment suspending the GO No 1 and sending notices to the state government on Thursday.
He said that the government had been imposing several restrictions on people for the last three-and-a-half years and taking away the constitutional rights of people by keeping the leaders under house arrest whenever they give a call for an agitation or a meeting. On the pretext of a mishap at Kandukuru, the state government issued the impugned order to stifle the Opposition in the state. However, the order is being implemented only against the Opposition parties.
CPI leaders Jalli Wilson, P Harinadha Reddy, Donepudi Sankar, G Koteswara Rao, Siva Reddy, Butti Rayappa and others participated in the meeting.
