YSRCP's Reddy Accuses TDP of Violence, Calls for Special Category Status

YSRCP member Yerram Venkata Subba Reddy accused the ruling TDP of engaging in sponsored violence against YSRCP leadership, urging them to secure special category status for Andhra Pradesh. He also advocated for increased NEET-UG seats, completion of the Polavaram Irrigation Project, and the revival of the Vizag Steel Plant.

In a scathing address on Tuesday, YSRCP member Yerram Venkata Subba Reddy accused the ruling TDP of perpetrating sponsored and organized violence against YSRCP leadership and cadres. Speaking during the Rajya Sabha debate on the Motion of Thanks to the president's address, Reddy emphasized that special category status for Andhra Pradesh is not merely a demand but a fundamental right for the people, who have suffered greatly post-bifurcation.

Reddy alleged that instead of pursuing special category status diligently, the TDP, after assuming power, has endorsed brutal violence against YSRCP members. He urged the TDP, an ally of the NDA, to refocus its efforts on securing the special status for the state.

Additionally, Reddy called on the Centre to expedite the completion of the Polavaram Irrigation Project by releasing the necessary funds. He also pushed for the privatization and revival of the Vizag Steel Plant and pressed for an increase in NEET-UG seats, citing a significant shortage in government medical colleges.
