Jagan focused more on looting state than people’s welfare
Lokesh says the govt is not paying even power bills of lift schemes resulting I water crisis
Mummidivaram: TDP national general secretary Nara Lokesh on Thursday said that Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy is more interested in looting the state than focusing on the people’s welfare and issues that are plaguing the state.
During his ongoing Yuva Galam padayatra, the villagers of Injaram of Mummidivaram Assembly constituency in a memorandum said that though the local MLA laid the foundation four years ago for rebuilding the flyover near their village which is in a dilapidated condition no steps are taken till now to begin the works. Also, around 14 villages nearby are reeling under acute water crisis, the villagers told him.
Expressing concern that the Jagan Mohan Reddy government is not paying even the power bills of the lift irrigation schemes due to which water crisis has deepened, Lokesh said that once the TDP forms the next government all the problems will be resolved on priority basis.
The Bapanapalle villagers who met Lokesh raised various problems they are facing, including the poor condition of roads in their area. As the pending bills are not cleared, construction of the housing units has not been taken up.
Responding to the villagers’ complaint, he said that once the TDP is back all the bills that have been kept pending due to political vendetta will be cleared. Since massive amount of bills are pending no contractor is coming forward to take up the works and this will be resolved by the coming TDP regime, he told the villagers.
P Mallavaram villagers informed Mr Lokesh that an oil company being managed by the ONGC has not fulfilled any promise made to them during the laying of its pipeline. Lokesh assured them that the coming TDP government will certainly sole the matter.
The jobless youth, sand mining workers and others met Lokesh and submitted various memorandums in which they made several complaints that the YSRCP government is totally ignoring their problems. Lokesh assured them that once the TDP is into power their problems will be solved and the day is not too far. “Just wait for a few more months and the TDP will be back in power,” he said.
