Law and order out of control in State: Chandrababu Naidu
As soon as the YSRCP came to power in the State, the law and order situation went out of control, alleged TDP national president and Opposition leader N Chandrababu Naidu.
Vijayawada: As soon as the YSRCP came to power in the State, the law and order situation went out of control, alleged TDP national president and Opposition leader N Chandrababu Naidu.
Addressing the media persons along with the other TDP leaders Chinarajappa, Dokka Manikya Varaprasad, Gadde Rammohan, Bala Veeranjaneya Swamy, Ashok Babu, Maddali Giri and others, the TDP supremo said that they had submitted the adjournment motion to the Speaker to discuss the law and order situation in the State, but even 12 days after the Assembly session started, the discussion was not taken up.
He said that seven TDP workers were killed in the last two months and there were 285 physical attacks, property was damaged at 65 places, land encroachments took place in 11 places and criminal cases were booked at 24 places.
A wall was constructed in the middle of the road in Punugupadu village of Phirangipuram mandal which comes under the constituency of the Home Minister. The wall was not removed even after the judicial court gave directions and the tahsildar and the RDO certified to remove it. ``The Home Minister should answer to the issue on Monday during the adjournment motion," he said.
Referring to the series of violent incidents in which the TDP workers were targeted, the Opposition Leader said that the police could not perform their duty effectively as they have become helpless.
He said that there was no action against the followers of YV Subba Reddy and Minister Balineni Srinivasa Reddy though they attacked and injured the Deputy Tahsildar and senior assistant in Korisapadu mandal of Addanki constituency. Chandrababu said that there have been a number of atrocities against women in the state which were result of deteriorating law and order situation.
He said that the government should give priority for the safety and security of the people and their property. ``The Chief Minister will be held responsible if anything happened to the TDP leaders," he said.
The former chief minister said that they were compelled to conduct press meetings every day since they were not allowed to voice the issues in the Assembly which could be described as the fallen prestige of the Assembly. ``The sanctity of the Assembly has gone," he deplored.
