YS Jagan fired on TDP Government

Amaravati, May 16: The YSRC Party President YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has fired on the TDP government for ignoring the welfare of farmers here on Tuesday.

While speaking at the session of the AP Assembly here on Tuesday, he said the state government has shown a lot of appreciation for badminton champ PV Sindhu but a fraction of that concern was not seen when addressing the concerns of the farmers.

He said that "There is nothing wrong in applauding a successful sportswoman but farmers are resorting to suicides because they are not getting minimum price for their produce,"

The TDP government only gave Rs 2 crore to the Mirchi farmers so far, he said and added that further the Mirchi yard has been given holidays beginning Tuesday.



"If chief minister Chandrababu Naidu is committed to the welfare of farmers, will he order the closure of the Mirchi yard?" questioned the opposition leader. He said the Government must set up a price stabilization fund with Rs 5000 crore as promised during the 2014 elections.

Incidentally, the AP Assembly approved a bill regarding the appointment of PV Sindhu as deputy collector.
