The coming municipal elections are posing a huge challenge to the YCP leaders. CM Jagan has already ordered his party leaders to win 90 percent local bodies. The Vijayawada municipal corporation election has assumed greater significance. If the YCP wins this mayoral election, then Jagan Reddy can claim it as the people’s mandate in favour of his 3 Capitals plan.
Amid this, the Chief Minister has written a letter to the Railway Minister asking for handing over railway lands in Vijayawada city limits to the AP government. These lands are located in Rajarajeswaripet where over 800 families are living by encroaching the same. The CM told the Railway Minister that these families have been living in those lands for the last 30 years. If these lands were handed over to AP, alternative lands would be provided for the Railways in Ajitsinghnagar.
After this, much political heat has generated on what more plans the ruling YCP leaders are coming up with in order to win the Vijayawada municipal corporation polls.
At the same time, the rivals are saying that the CM’s letter would be just an eyewash considering the fact that it came just a few days ahead of the elections.
