Within five months of coming to power, AP CM Jaganmohan Reddy is being criticised very badly by opposition leaders like no other CM anywhere in the country. He was described as a Tughlaq ruler for his demolition of Andhra Capital City. TDP leaders called him Jaganasura for his government’s too many police cases and political atrocities leading to suicide of former Assembly Speaker Kodela Sivaprasada Rao.

Now, Jagan is being described as a Nero Emperor who played fiddle when Rome was burning and Roman people were facing severe hardships. BJP Ex MLA Vishnukumar Raju says that there is no difference between Jagan and Nero going by how AP CM is acting insensibly while the Andhra people are stuck in a deepening financial crisis and widespread joblessness. Raju blamed Jagan oppressive rule for the continuing suicides by construction workers, contractors, farmers and others because of lack of work opportunities. The BJP leader expressed disappointment that five months are over but Jagan doesn’t want to bring a people-friendly sand policy into implementation.

Vishnukumar Raju asked why Jagan is still stopping payments of hundreds of crores due to the contractors for works already completed. The contractors are committing suicides now but YCP Circar is not changing. More sadly, CM is not giving appointments to anybody outside of his coterie of relatives and YSR family loyalists.
