YSRCP, TDP, JSP working under BJP?

Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) chief Shailajanath made scathing attack on all the political parties in the state and said they were all hand-in-glow with each other and thereby taking the people of the state for ride. APCC met along with the new state in-charge Oomen Chandy in Gandhi Bhavan in Hyderabad to decide on the stand to be taken by party on various public issues concerning the people.

Shailajanath alleged that the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP), Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and Jana Sena Party (JSP) were working under the umbrella of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and failed to question the injustice being meted out to Andhra Pradesh.

APCC chief reiterated that Amaravati should continue to be the capital of Andhra Pradesh as it was unanimously decided in the AP Assembly with the support of all the parties. He said that the Chief Minister YS Jaganmohan Reddy is now changing his stand, but it was unacceptable to the Congress. "We are against the very concept of three capitals," he said.

Pointing out that AP Congress would strive for people's and their issues. "Amaravati, attacks on Dalits and temples and the issues related to courts were the issues discussed," he said.

Former Kerala CM Chandy said the political situation in the state and the anti-people policies of the central government were discussed and the party had planned agitations against them.

Criticizing the central government on the recent farmers bills, Chandy said the BJP government had deceived the farmers ignoring their interests in the bill. "BJP's behaviour is against the federal spirit," he said.

"The UPA government had assured special status to Andhra Pradesh, but even after six years of BJP's rule the promise is not fulfilled." Chandy refused to comment on the judgements of the courts in relation to Andhra Pradesh government and said it was not fair to target the judiciary.
