Proddatur (YSR district) : In a spirited start to his election campaign, Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy launched the 'Memantha Siddham' Yatra, rallying supporters with a fervent call to ensure continuation of the welfare and development initiatives of his government by electing him once again. Addressing a massive gathering in Proddatur town, the CM underscored the importance of unity and determination in the face of opposition’s challenges.
The Chief Minister highlighted the relentless efforts of his government in bringing about revolutionary changes across various sectors during its 58 months rule. He emphasised the direct transfer of Rs 2.70 lakh crore into the accounts of the people, without any discrimination or corruption, as a testament to his administration's commitment to uplift the poor and marginalised.
Drawing attention to recent political developments, Jagan Mohan Reddy condemned the ‘opportunistic alliances’ formed by opposition parties to thwart his government's progress. He vehemently denounced the tactics employed by his detractors, including baseless accusations and attempts to tarnish his reputation.
He called upon the electorate to cast their votes wisely, urging them to remember the promises made by the opposition alliance in the past and their subsequent failure to deliver on those commitments. He emphasised the need for voters to discern between empty rhetoric and tangible actions, highlighting his government's track record of fulfilling its pledges.
Amidst thunderous applause and chants of support, the Chief Minister rallied his supporters to stand firm against the ‘forces of injustice’ and exploitation. He urged them to mobilise their communities and spread awareness about the transformative initiatives undertaken by his government, emphasising the pivotal role each voter plays in shaping the future of the state.
