BJP questions Naidu’s opposition to bulk drugs park
Reddy said it is heartbreaking that Penamuru farmer Ratnam died at the tehsildar\'s office he made rounds of to get his problem solved
Vijayawada: Bharatiya Janata Party state general secretary Vishnuvardhan Reddy on Sunday demanded that Telugu Desam give up its dual standards on establishment of the bulk drug park (BDP) in Andhra Pradesh.
Addressing media here, he said if no pollution had been caused by industries in MedTech and other industrial zones established during the TD regime, why is the party opposing the same now. He maintained that BJP will not forgive any party that does injustice to lakhs of unemployed people.
Vishnuvardhan Reddy asked Telugu Desam chief N. Chandrababu Naidu whether the letter written by Yanamala Ramakrishnudu opposing the BDP is the latter’s personal opinion or TD’s policy. Further, Naidu must answer why he himself is opposing this project.
The BJP leader said it is heartbreaking that Penamuru farmer Ratnam of Chittoor district died at the tehsildar's office he made rounds of to get his problem solved. He regretted that neither Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, ministers nor higher officials have responded to this incident.
He demanded that Ratnam's death be registered as a case of murder and compensation of ₹50 lakh paid to his family. He said BJP will file a complaint with the National Human Rights Commission on this incident.
Vishnuvardhan Reddy charged that education mafia is running the government in AP. He wondered why state government is not implementing the law giving 25 percent free seats to poor students in private educational institutions despite a court order in this regard.
