Immediately after the TDP, Jana Sena and BJP alliance government is formed the ruling dispensation will take all possible measures for the welfare of the motor workers, TDP general secretary, Nara Lokesh, said on Sunday.

Lokesh had a meeting with the representatives of the Auto Workers Union, AP Workers Union, Auto Workers and the Auto Union at his residence at Vundavalli. Addressing all of them, Lokesh said that this Government has brought in the GOs 5 and 6 only to illegally occupy the valuable lands of the auto workers in Auto Nagar and promised to rescind these GOs soon after the alliance forming the coming government as these GOs are linked with the lives of lakhs of auto workers.

This apart, the Auto Nagar in Mangalagiri will be extended to allot shops and lands for the eligible beneficiaries besides providing better facilities there to transform it as the best Auto Nagar in the country, the TDP national general secretary said. Making it clear that those who are resorting to attacks on the TDP supporters in Auto Nagar will not be spared by the coming government, he promised to impart training to the auto workers to see to it that their revenue goes up.

When the auto workers brought their problems to the notice of Lokesh like the Andhra Pradesh Industrial Infrastructure Corporation (APIIC) has taken back 120 plots belonging to them and forcing the auto workers to vacate the shops if they are supporting the TDP, Lokesh assured them all their problems will be solved on a warfooting basis by the coming government. He also expressed concern that the auto workers are facing untold difficulties with the fines being imposed on them by this Government.

The steep hike in petrol and diesel prices too is hitting them hard, he said and promised to establish a corporation by the coming government for their welfare and to give them some lift financially. A separate parking zone will be set up at all the urban areas in the State, Lokesh said and assured them that they will not have to face any kind of problem or financial loss with the free bus facility for women. The demand for autos in Karnataka and Telangana still is the same, he said and promised to take steps to increase their revenue and no fines will be imposed on them besides bringing down the green tax.

The Chandranna Bheema will be of great relief for them, Lokesh said and made it clear that Amaravathi is going to remain the capital which will help this area to progress well to create job opportunities for the youth. Lokesh promised the AC Workers Union members to impart better training for them besides providing the necessary infrastructure.

Lokesh promised all of them to bring down the power charges and the taxes besides providing them the insurance facility under Chandranna Bheema. All the auto union and AC workers union representatives brought their problems to the notice of Lokesh who promised to resolve all these issues immediately after forming the government.

The upcoming battle coming in a couple of months is between egoistic Chief Minister, Jagan Mohan Reddy, and the self-respect of the people, said TDP general secretary, Nara Lokesh, on Sunday.

“How Jagan, who says that the coming election is between the poor and the feudals, can call himself as poor since he has assets worth lakhs of crores, the chappals that he wears are worth Rs 1 lakh, drinks Rs 1,000 worth of water bottle and who owns palaces in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Tadepalle, Idupulapaya and Visakhapatnam,” Lokesh asked while addressing a huge public meeting in Visakhapatnam East Assembly segment during his ongoing ‘Sankharavam’. Terming Jagan as a blatant liar, Lokesh felt that the Bharathi Cements which is set up by looting the public money belongs to the people but not to Jagan.

Lokesh feels that the foundations of the palaces owned by Jagan are also laid on highly corrupt money and thus they too belong to the people. “The TDP-Jana Sena government which will be in place in another two months will seize these palaces and hand them over to the public,” Lokesh said.

The Yatra movie produced spending crores of rupees is not being watched even by the YSRCP MLAs, the TDP national general secretary said that and stated that the last journey for the YSRCP MLAs has begun. Jagan has silently grabbed the Krishnapatnam and Gangavaram ports resulting in 10,000 employees of the Krishnapatnam Port losing their jobs. “Lands, hillocks and ports are no exception for these YSRCP leaders to occupy illegally,” he remarked.

The revenue of Jagan through the sand mafia is Rs 3 cr per day and he has looted Rs 5400 cr in these five years, he said, adding that after Jagan came to power the cost of sand has gone so high. Observing that Jagan has affection towards prisoners, he stated that Rs 2,000 each is being paid to the prisoners every month while the BC students are not being paid even the cosmetic charges.

Pointing out that the Videsee Vidya scheme implemented during the TDP regime was revoked by Jagan, he promised to reintroduce all the welfare schemes that were in force during the TDP regime, including the Videsee Vidya, by the coming TDP-Jana Sena government. The prices of all commodities, including the power charges, RTC fare and house tax, have been increased drastically, Lokesh said.

TDP supremo, Nara Chandrababu Naidu, and Jana Sena chief, Pawan Kalyan, have taken the initiative to announce the Super-Six only after having experienced the real problems being faced by the common man, he said. “I am assuring you all that all the schemes mentioned in this Super-Six will be implemented and I will personally take this responsibility,” he said.

In the name of making Visakhapatnam as the capital city for the State, these YSRCP leaders are grabbing the expensive lands in the city, Lokesh said and pointed out that Jagan has built a palace in Rishi Konda with a whopping Rs 500 cr. “Still he is not staying here while the ruling party leaders like YV Subba Reddy and Vijayasai Reddy, too are active in illegally occupying the costly lands here,” Lokesh said.

Recalling how Chandrababu, as the then chief minister of the State, had come to the rescue of the locals when the Hud Hud cyclone had hit the city, Lokesh mentioned how Visakhapatnam was developed during the TDP regime. Promising the people that the TDP will stand by its promises made to the people, Lokesh called upon the gathering to work for the success of Velagapudi Rama Krishna with a thumping majority.

“Velagapudi does not know what is corruption and he is still using some outdated model phones. Thus, he deserves to be your leader to work for your progress,” Lokesh said. Stating that the coming two months are very crucial, Lokesh called upon the TDP and the Jana Sena activists to be among the people to bring awareness among them. Visakhapatnam (East) should stand on top three in the majority that the combine is going to win, he added.

TDP general secretary, Nara Lokesh, on Saturday made it clear that all sections of society get proper recognition in the party.

Several YSRCP leaders from Mangalagiri Assembly segment, including Venkata Prasad and Palnati Nageswara Rao, along with 100 families on Saturday joined the TDP in the presence of Lokesh. Welcoming all of them into party fold, Lokesh said the ruling YSRCP is getting vacated as almost all the party leaders are joining the TDP.

“Countdown has begun for Chief Minister, Jagan Mohan Reddy, and since the ruling party leaders are well aware that the YSRCP is going to be defeated in the coming polls all the seniors are looking towards the TDP,” Lokesh said. Calling upon the leaders to work together for the overall development of not only Mangalagiri but also the whole State, the TDP national general secretary said that every section of society gets its proper place in the TDP.

“Cooperate with the seniors in the party and work for the TDP victory in the coming elections,” Lokesh told those who joined the party. The Yuva Galam has generated a lot of enthusiasm among the party cadre across the State, he added.

Before joining the TDP, these leaders took out a massive rally in Mangalagiri. Lokesh has been holding a series of meetings with the locals, particularly those who are adopting a neutral path and seniors are rallying behind him to create history in the State in the coming polls.

The TDP leaders from Mangalagiri, Nandam Abaddaiah, Mummidi Satyanarayana, Potheneni Srinivasa Rao and others were present.
