Taking strong objection to the allegations of a TDP Minister on loan waiver, YSR Congress has said that the TDP Government is only trying to sidetrack the main issue and dared the State to order an inquiry to prove the charges.

“In a bid to sidestep the waiver of loans, TDP Government has been resorting to counterattack on the main opposition party and we demand the State to order a probe by any agency into the allegations levelled against YS Jagan Mohan Reddy that he has been giving false reports on the issue,” party senior leader Parthasarathi told reporters here on Sunday.

As the TDP government is unable to keep up its poll promise, more so, the first file Chandrababu Naidu signed as after assuming office, it is taking the offensive path by levelling baseless allegations that our Party President has been giving false reports on the loan waiver issue.

“We challenge the TDP to order for an inquiry and if proved wrong the state irrigation minister Devinenei Umamaheshwara Rao, who levelled the charges should quit,” he said adding that such tactics will not go well with the people.

Rescheduling of loans is not an equivalent measure to waiver of loans and the first file Chandrababu Naidu has signed was that of waiving all agriculture and DWACRA loans. Our Party has been raising objection to this and the TDP leaders are distorting our contention and are interpreting it to suit their escapism from the election promise.

TDP is trying to cover up its inefficiency in the cover of RBI guidelines and why is Chandrababu Naidu not mounting pressure on the Centre to bail him out in fulfilling the poll promise and save the farmers, he asked.

He also condemned the act of “Chandra dandu” trying to burn the effigies of YS Jagan Mohan Reddy in Ananthapur district and asserted that questioning the TDP government to waive the loans is not wrong or undemocratic.
