He said BJP had gone back on its assurance on giving special status. ” It is wrong to say that many states are opposed to the special status. No state is opposed to AP. If you (NDA government) don’t want to give special status, place your stand before the people of Andhra Pradesh. BJP should not forget that it won the 2014 election in Andhra Pradesh because of Modi’s assurance on the special status,” Arunkumar said. He wished a success to Jagan.
