YSR Congress president and Opposition leader in Andhra Pradesh assembly, YS Jaganmohan Reddy said chief minister Chandrababu Naidu had established jungle raj in Andhra Pradesh and the CM was behaving like a monster. On Monday Jagan visited some villages in Amaravati capital development region and met the farmers whose crops were burnt by miscreants for not offering their lands to the construction of capital city.
Three days ago, unknown trouble makers burnt the sugarcane crop of farmer G Chandrasekhar. After meeting farmers, Jagan took strong objection to the “arm twisting tactics of chief minister Chandrababau Naidu to force the farmers give up their land for the capital.”
” All the farmers who refused to give their lands to the land pooling are facing tough time. Gundas are threatening and police are not cooperating. In the past 10 months 13 crop-burning incidents have taken place in the capital region. Police are refusing to book the cases when these farmers approached them. This is Jungle Raj,” he said adding that the Bihar people would be happy if they known that the real jungle raj is existing in Andhra Pradesh.
Chandrababu Naidu had given up all his human qualities and transformed himself in to a monster, Jagan criticized. The opposition leader categorically warned the government not to take the lands forcefully and take only those lands which were offered by the farmers voluntariely. “Threatening the farmers who refuse to fall in line is not acceptable. Government ‘s agents are threatening the farmers of serious consequences if they do not surrender their lands. The burning of crops is done at the behest chief minister Naidu,” Jagan alleged.
Jagan assured the farmer Chandrasekhar that he and his party would stand by him and if necessary they approach the court for justice.
