Naidu slams AP CM for aqua farmers' crisis

Vijayawada: Aquaculture sector is in deep crisis now in Andhra Pradesh due to the faulty policies of the State government, said the former Chief Minister and TDP national president N Chandrababu Naidu, here on Thursday.

Participating in the State-level seminar on 'Idemi Kharma Aqua Rytanganiki' (what is this ill-fate for aquaculture), he said that the policies of the State government should always be in favour of the farming sector but this regime is only trying to have an upper hand on all the sectors. Those who ruled the State earlier had always worked for the betterment of all systems but due to the wicked policies of the YSRCP government aqua farmers are suffering a lot now, he observed.

Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy always thinks of his share in every decision that he takes and he works only to mint money, Naidu alleged.

Prices of all commodities, including petrol and diesel, are skyrocketing only in Andhra Pradesh and even the prices of essential commodities and power tariff too are the highest in the State, he stated.

The 'Badudee Badudu' programme organised by the TDP to highlight the highest tax structure in the State evoked tremendous response from the public, he claimed.
