Demonetization, privatization in favor of BJP, claims JD Seelam
Former Rajya Sabha member and senior congress leader JD Seelam has accused the Narendra Modi regime at the center of wrecking the nation’s economy with flawed policies.
Mr Seelam was touring the Srikalahasti and Satyavedu Assembly segments, which fall under the Tirupati (SC) Lok Sabha constituency, on Tuesday as part of his campaign for party candidate Chinta Mohan, when he made the observation. He accused the center of manipulating the independence and autonomy of the constitutional bodies, besides messing up privatization policies financially.
“The demonstration and the privatization frenzy are for the party’s personal ends only, with no national reason,” he said, comparing the development projects underway during the previous congressional regimes at the national level in the form of irrigation projects, railroads. Nationalization of banks and farmers’ well-being. Trying to privatize the Vizag steel mill is the last straw and people should rebel against this regime, he said.
While Congress had made several promises to the state during its “reorganization”, the TDP reduced these to “bifurcation” promises by sideizing the BJP government at the center and thereby doing the state injustice, Seelam claimed himself while he was peeling the ruling regime of the YSR Congress Party failed to press the center on the SCS (Special Category Status) issue.
