Visakhapatnam: Visakhapatnam: Demanding the Special Category Status for state, many students from various colleges took part in a rally taken out by Jana Jagaran Samithi of Visakhapatnam Unit here on Friday. The rally was flagged off at Sampath Vinayagar temple and concluded at Dabagardens.
Speaking on the occasion, State Organising Secretary of Jana Jagarana Samithi Vasu said that if the Centre accords the Special Category Status many industries would be set up in the state to cash in on the sops given by the Central government.
If more industries were established in the state, employment opportunities would be generated in the state, he added. If the BJP government fails to give Special Status to the state, the people would teach a lesson in 2019 general elections, he warned.
Vasu also mentioned that the BJP leaders betrayed the people and citizens of Visakhapatnam after assuring many promises both to the state and the city. During the elections, the BJP leaders, including MP K Haribabu and MLC PVN Madhav, assured that the BJP government would give railway zone with Visakhapatnam as headquarters. In fact, railway zone is a long pending demand of the people of Visakhapatnam region.
