Chandrababu Naidu in his short-lived tour at Delhi went hard on ally BJP for delaying the release of funds including the wait in implementation of special package.
Under such circumstances a cryptic tweet from Jana Sena handle has become a topic of deliberation. The tweet said that on one hand the special status is not given, employment is not created, and even the jobs that are there are being snatched. Demanding the government to respond on people’s issues, Kalyan warned that the government will have to face dire consequences.
It may be noted that Dredging Corporation of India operates under Central government, also special status was denied by BJP-led-NDA government.
Chandrababu also said that the TDP has not compromised but was forced to adjust on the special category. He pointed in an interview, “They (Central Government) made it clear we cannot give special status”
States often depend on Centre for funds and Chandrababu this time avoided going extra mile to shower praises on the Modi government instead said they gave small funds. He went on to say the state itself is borrowing and managing it.
With both Jana Sena and TDP impugning the saffron party for depriving the state of the rightful share, BJP’s aspirations of expanding its footprint in Andhra Pradesh is going to be a distant dream.
