New Delhi: TDP president Chandrababu Naidu on Friday asked the party’s MPs to intensify their protest here for special category status for Andhra Pradesh.
In a teleconference with TDP MPs, Naidu said, “BJP is running away by repeatedly adjourning the House for these many days. If Parliament is adjourned sine die, MPs must meet President. BJP is acting on the lines of divide and rule.” Today was the last day of Parliament’s second part of the Budget Session.
This morning in Amaravati, the Andhra Pradesh chief minister led a cycle rally of his ministers and TDP legislators protesting the Centre’s attitude towards the state, vis-a-vis the implementation of the AP Reorganisation Act, 2014.
“Already people of AP are not accepting BJP. Soon, there will be a day when the BJP will not be accepted by the entire country,” Naidu said in a statement issued by his media cell.
“We will not step back until assurances made in the Rajya Sabha including Special Category Status and provisions of AP Reorganisation Act are fulfilled,” he said.
