YSRCP will sweep Municipal polls in AP: Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy

Government Advisor for Public Affairs Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy said TDP is struggling to find candidates for the polls although State Election Commission has given them one more chance to file nominations.

"YSRCP candidates will sweep in the municipal elections, as people have witnessed the good governance of Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy for the past 20 months. Elections have always proved that YSRCP is the clear winner, with people's blessings," he said.

He slammed TDP Chief Chandrababu Naidu for releasing a manifesto for municipal polls and making fake promises to cheat the public. "The 40-year TDP has lost its shine and now struggling hard to find candidates to contest. Even though the SEC gives another chance to file nominations, no one is coming forward to contest. False allegations that government is threatening TDP leaders have no takers," he said.

Taking a dig at TDP's Municipal manifesto, Ramakrishna Reddy asked Chandrababu Naidu to clarify whether he had given 20 liters of drinking water for just Rs 2, or a job in each family which he had promised in 2014.

"The 600 promises made in the TDP manifesto in 2014 general elections have no authenticity. The manifesto was even removed from the party website before 2019. YSRCP would complain to the Election Commission about TDP's cheating," he said.

Speaking on TDPs allegations on increasing property taxes, he said that it is Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy who has raised the living standards of the people. "No matter how many lies Chandrababu tells, people will not believe that taxes are being levied on them. Chandrababu Naidu is working too hard to put TDP back on track as it lost in his own constituency Kuppam in recent Panchayat polls," he said.
