Condemning the manner in which Chandrababu Naidu has been speaking ill of Andhra Pradesh on foreign soil, YSR Congress has said that the foreign investments which came in are far less than the tour cost of the Chief Minister.
Speaking to reporters here on Saturday party spokesperson Ambati Rambabu said: ‘ Chandrababu Naidu telling the Governor of California during his US tour that Andhra Pradesh has no capital city and the division of the state was unscientific and was done in a haste shows the manner in which he has degraded the dignity of the state on foreign soil.
Certainly it is unbecoming on part of Chief Minister to speak ill about the state he is heading which is highly objectionable. It was the same person who is now crying foul on the division of the state who had earlier given letters in support of the bifurcation and even participated in the reorganization process of the state.
He has gone on foreign jaunts on numerous occasions and boasted about investments but the visits through chartered flights had cost the state more than what has come in as investments during the past three years. Some people even doubt the real intentions of his frequent visits to foreign countries as they are much higher than any chief minister of other states.
The two partnership summits held in Visakhapatnam has attracted investment worth Rs 15 lakh crores was the claim of the TDP government while in reality not a single rupee has come in, he said. It is reported that some of the American IT companies that had signed MoUs with Andhra Pradesh Government were raided and have shady credentials.
Lokesh has spilled the beans when he categorically announced that his father (facing charges in the cash for vote case) is not in a position to mount pressure on the Centre in securing Special Category Status (SCS) and the question of differing with the Centre’s stand does not arise.
