Hyderabad: The leader of opposition and YSRCP president YS Jagan proclaimed that the fight for special category status would be consolidated further. In order to raise awareness among the NRIs regarding the issue, along with senior journalist Kommineni Srinivasa rao, he discussed many issues through video interaction from the party’s central office in Hyderabad.

First YS Jagan explained about the importance of special category status. He also slammed Chandrababu’s deception in the matter. He commented that the state had been divided irregularly and with Hyderabad not being divided, people of AP had to lose 98% percentage of the companies. He reminded that 70% of the production industries were in Hyderabad. YS Jagan remarked that we need special status in order to competitively attain the state of the art infrastructure. Mentioning the discounts possible through the status, he called for further consolidation of fight for its achievement.

YS Jagan made it clear that YSRCP’s MPs would resign if needed, in order to achieve the status for the state. Proclaiming they would join hands with anybody in the struggle for special status, he slammed Chandrababu for thanking and welcoming Arun Jaitley’s announcement of special package, thus slaughtering the hopes for the grant of special status.

Here is what he spoke during the online interaction with NRIs.  

• There is no bigger liar than Chandrababu.
• Nobody can manipulate systems in India as Chandrababu does.
• When Telangana has been achieved, it is not impossible to achieve special category status.
• Struggle will find solution in democracy.
• He boasted about his doing MA and PhD. Then why is nobody calling him “Dr.Chandrababu”?
• We have also seen him say things like he invented the cell phone.
• Everyone knows how good his English is.
• Chandrababu welcomed Arun Jaitley’s announcement, wonder how far he could understand it!
• Announcement was made about special package in Legislative Council and the centre was thanked for it.
• Polavaramproject’s regulations were irregularly altered.
• The system should change. People should confront the leaders.
• How long we live does not matter; it is how we live that matters.
• The centre clearly said that not much is being done for Polavaram either.
• Chandrababu’s Government is trying to continue the same contractor unjustly, in spite of Polavaram authority’s will and pleas.
• Chandrababu is not bothering about the contractor’s inefficiency.
• Instead of bringing pressure on the centre in the direction of sanctioning the status, Chandrababu is diverting the topic.
• Employment opportunities for the youth will improve only with the advent of new industries.
• Industrial discounts will be possible only if special status is given.
• Industrialists will come forward to invest if discounts are given.
• If CM and cabinet ministers deceive people, who else can help?
• We all can see the written form of announcement made by Arun Jaitley.
• Chandrababu is jumping with joy for what Arun Jaitley dropped into our hands.
• Chandrababu is delighted even if special status has been drowned.

• We will join hands with anybody who wants to fight for the status, like we did with people’s organisations and communists.
• Chandrababu was caught red-handed in Cash for Vote case. He is satisfied with whatever the state gives the state, as long as he is not pulled into the court for interrogation.
• Every agitation for the status is becoming successful due to unity.
• We will raise cognizance among people with our agitations. Our aim is to achieve the status.
• Special status is an elixir.
• Chandrababu and Venkaiah Naidu who have suggested at the time of the state’s bifurcation and promised at the time of elections for sanction of special status to AP for 10 and 15 years respectively have changed their word now.
• TDP and BJP will collapse due to their behaviour in the matter of special status just like Congress Party that collapsed in AP due to the decision taken by UPA Government regarding bifurcation of the state.
• Only the PM has the power to sanction special category status.
• The 14th Finance Commission never objected to the idea of sanction of special status. Letter written by its member Abhijit Sen clearly proves it.
• PM gave Jammu & Kashmir that is already enjoying special status, a special package of Rs.80,000 crore. Does that mean it does not have special status?
• In 2019, definitely coalition Government will be formed in the centre. No party is going to get 280 seats. If we win 22-23 seats, we can demand the centre.
• Vinukonda MLA established a company in Himachal Pradesh that has special status. How can this be explained?
• Due to the benefits offered by the special category status, industrialists themselves will come forward to invest.
• Listening to Arun Jaitley’s announcement, nobody would want to thank him.
• The funds supposed to be sanctioned to the state are being given with a different name.

• Chandrababu is sidetracking everybody’s attention in the matter of capital city.
• Good quality crop lands have been snatched from farmers with false statements.
• Swiss Challenge system is being used to pass time.
• Why are the 20 MLAs who joined TDP after defecting YSRCP, not being asked to resign?
• Questioning Chandrababu’s corruption is leading to counterblaming about hindering development.
• There is 972 km coastal corridor in AP.
• Special category status seems to be set aside.
• Our youth is well-educated and talented. They all will be benefited from the status.
• Do not lose courage. Fight with determination will yield the status.
• Chandrababu is posing obstacles to or fight.
• Let us fight in spite of resistance from the centre and Chandrababu.
• Support from every one of you is needed for this movement.
• Relentless fight will definitely make it possible.
• Actually, it is Chandrababu who has to fight and achieve the status by bringing pressure through withdrawing his ministers from the union Government.
• But his dormancy is provoking us to fight.
• Rulers are getting habitual of lying at the time of elections and neglecting people later.
