Lokesh accuses YSRCP of using goons to attack critics of govt

Amaravati, May 17 (Maxim News): TDP leader Nara Lokesh today accused today the ruling YSRCP of using hired goons and criminals to suppress the rising voices of the people against the Jagan Mohan Reddy “misrule”. He condemned the latest attack by the YCP activists on a Dalit woman Karlapudi Venkayamma for voicing her strong feelings against the government’s policies. They attacked her house at Kantheru in Guntur district, he alleged.

In a statement here, Lokesh said all sections of people in the State were expressing the same opinions as those of Venkayamma. There would be serious repercussions if any harm would be done to the illiterate and poor SC women. Nara Lokesh said Venkayamma had expressed her concern that the poor people were leading miserable lives under the Jagan rule. Instead of realising their mistakes, the ruling party leaders were threatening the Dalit woman and her family members and relatives. Every citizen was vexed with the manner in which the YSRCP was targeting critics and rivals.

Lokesh criticised Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy for unleashing attacks on the political rivals.

Lokesh decried the attack by the YSRCP miscreants in which the car of TDP State secretary Sainatha Sarma was damaged and vandalised in Kadapa district. The TDP leader was targeted just because he was exposing the corruption of Jagan Mohan Reddy’s maternal uncle and MLA Ravindranath Reddy.

The TDP MLC asserted that the Chief Minister and his party MLAs were suffering from the phobia of defeat in the next elections. Because of this, they were trying to use threats and intimidation. The people had realized that the Chief Minister’s promises were all lies and betrayals. He said Jagan Mohan Reddy had lost trust of the people. The people would not be afraid of the ruling party’s attacks and victimisation, he added. (Maxim News)
