Vijayawada: Advisor to the Andhra Pradesh Government, Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy said the YSRCP-backed candidates bagged 82 per cent seats in the first phase of panchayat elections and the same streak will continue in the remaining phases.
Addressing a press conference on Wednesday, he slammed TDP leaders for distorting the facts with a section of media to confuse the public and try to influence them. 'These gimmicks will not work as people understood the contrast and are tangible with welfare coming to the doorstep. At least now TDP should be working on people's issues, he said'.
Sajjala stated that the party withstood the biased nature of the State Election Commissioner, who indeed went overboard in the name of constitutional powers by harassing the officers with their service records, court cases, and acted more as a politician.
Meanwhile speaking at a separate press conference, Minister for Municipal Administration Botsa Satyanarayana reiterated that the YSRCP backed candidates had swept the first phase of panchayat elections winning 82 per cent of the seats.
He dared Chandrababu Naidu to list out how their party has secured 38 per cent seats. The Minister said that YSRCP supporters had won 2,637 out of 3,244 panchayats in first phase elections, followed by TDP with 508 and 99 seats going to independents.
