Former minister and Machilipatnam MLA, Perni Venkataramaiah (Nani) has strongly criticised Naidu and Pawan for disseminating false information about the Land Titling Act.
Speaking at the party central office on Saturday, Nani said that the YSRCP government is entering the 2024 elections on the strength of its five-year performance, while the Opposition is resorting to deceitful tactics to sow confusion among the electorate.
Nani highlighted the paradox of Chandrababu Naidu, touting 14 years as CM and 40 years of political experience, yet observing questionable trends in the current election cycle. He reiterated CM Jagan Mohan Reddy’s confidence in his administration’s fulfilment of promises made over the past five years.
However, Nani accused Ramoji Rao, Radhakrishna, Chandrababu, and Pawan Kalyan of orchestrating a campaign to divert attention from the YSRCP government’s accomplishments. He noted their persistent attacks on CM Jagan over the last four years, citing instances such as their criticism of the volunteer system.
Nani condemned the opposition’s misrepresentation of the volunteer system as a nefarious operation, citing baseless claims made by Pawan Kalyan regarding the alleged involvement of volunteers in illegal activities.
Similarly, Chandrababu’s insinuations about volunteers engaging in misconduct further fueled misinformation.
Regarding the Land Titling Act, Nani accused pro-TDP media outlets of fearmongering and spreading falsehoods to undermine public trust in the legislation. Despite these efforts, Nani asserted that the opposition’s smear campaign has failed to diminish CM Jagan’s standing among the electorate.
He refuted allegations made by the opposition regarding property acquisitions, pointing out that people like Balakrishna and Pawan Kalyan had legally obtained the necessary documentation for their purchases. Nani condemned these falsehoods as politically motivated attempts to discredit the YSRCP and CM Jagan ahead of the elections.
