Nellore: Agriculture Minister SomireddyChandramohan Reddy said that Telugu people in Karnataka have taught a fitting lesson to the BJP in the recent Assembly elections. The BJP and YSRC have been creating hurdles for progress of AP, he said while participating in Mini Mahanadu at Vinjamur in the district on Sunday.
Addressing the party workers during mini Mahanadu, Somireddy said that YS Jaganmohan Reddy was in an unhappy mood after Yeddyurappa had submitted his resignation on Saturday. ``Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu had made an appeal to the voters of Karnataka to defeat the BJP as it betrayed people of AP. Consequently, Telugu voters have decided to teach them a lesson in the elections,’’ said the Minister.
Many politicians were in fear to express their opinions on the dictatorial attitude of the Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chandrababu is the only person who expressed clear disagreement, he said. ``During his 29 visits to Delhi, Chandrababu Naidu had appealed to the Prime Minister to implement Reorganisation Act and to provide Special Category Status to the state.
But, Narendra Modi and Amit Shah had not consideredthe requests of AP people. They were supportingA-1 accused from the state who has involved in several financial crimes,’’ the Agriculture Minister said. He reiterated that Rs. 8 croreworth CJFS lands are being provided as DKT lands to the concerned families in the district. The government has plans to clear issues of dotted lands of one lakh acres in the district shortly.

The state government has been distributing pensions worth Rs.29 crore in the district, he added. Udayagiri MLA BollineniRamarao and others were present.
