The YSR Congress today alleged that Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu used his experience to "subvert" the aspirations of the people eagerly waiting for his election promises to be fulfilled.
Andhra Pradesh's main opposition party alleged that Naidu had changed his stance on the farmers' loan waiver by setting up committee after committee to find ways to wriggle out of the situation during his 100 days in office, adding that it would take up the people's cause to question the government on every count.
"Of the five files he (Naidu) signed after assuming office, not a single scheme was implemented. The loan waiver scheme passed through committee after committee and stricture after stricture. In the final tally of budgetary allocation, it fell flat after it was drastically cut to size," YSR Congress official spokesperson Parthasarathy told reporters here today.
He alleged that various committees slashed the actual figure of Rs 87,000 crore to Rs 45,000 crore and, when it came to budget allocation it was "flattened" to a meagre Rs 5,000 crore, which clearly showed the intention of the TDP government.
The Sujana Chowdhary Committee treating the loan waiver on corporate terms is highly impracticable, since agriculture can never be an enterprise since there is no guarantee whether or not the proposed bonds would be accepted by banks, Parthasarathy said.
"With the confusion and utter chaos about loan waiver looming large, agricultural operations have not begun yet, despite reservoirs being full. Transplantation took place only in 30 per cent of cultivable land. There is no clarity as to who is eligible for loan waiver and strictures imposed have complicated the situation further," he said.
Covering up all shortcomings, TDP leaders resort to tall talk which is mostly urban centric, with the AP Chief Minister leading the pack with concepts like smart cities and smart airports which cater to the needs of industrialists, YSR Congress said.
