Amaravati: YSRCP chief Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy on Wednesday announced that the party will organise its plenary meeting next year grandly and energetically.
Reddy asserted that Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu has allegedly dragged politics to its lowest level through corruption, broken promises, and mafia entanglements, and that people will never vote him back to power.
“We will hold a grand plenary next year as people have seen through Chandrababu’s lies and corruption and will reject him for his failed governance,” said Reddy in a press release.
Stating that the party had to cross several hurdles in its 11-year journey, the chief minister said thanks to the dedicated leaders and cadre who had given their sweat and blood, the party had achieved a landslide victory in 2019. “I salute the people of Andhra Pradesh and our cadres for reposing faith in the party,” he said.
Jagan reiterated that it was the blessing of the people of the state which made the party and government work towards development, welfare, and social justice. “We have fulfilled 95% of promises on our manifesto without discrimination of caste, creed, and religion. Our government has shown the door for change, development, and prosperity for the state,” he said.
He said in the last three years, too, the state had to face several challenges, the biggest being the Covid-19 pandemic which had severely affected the state financial position. “Despite these challenges, the state government has done remarkably well in fulfilling the promises made to the people and implement the welfare schemes,” he said.
The chief minister said he was proud to claim that the YSRCP is a party that stands by its word. “We have proved that this is the way a government should address the needs of every section of the society, including farmers, fishermen, women, youth, weavers, labourers and minorities,” he said.
He also pointed out how his political rivals sought to run him down and create hurdles in the path of his journey. “No matter how many stones were thrown at us, no matter how many accusations were made, we faced all of them. Despite the many conspiracies and numerous attacks that were made against us, we did not lose heart and neither did our determination change,” he said.
Jagan claimed that during his regime, he had seen to it that looting and sharing of public money had stopped. “We have proved that power is not to exhibit pride but to serve people with responsibility,” he added.
On the first day of the plenary, the party discussed and adopted as many as five resolutions on women empowerment, education, DBT schemes, health, administration-transparency.
