During the seventh day of the ongoing ‘padayatra’ on Thursday, Nara Lokesh met leaders of the Arya Vysya community and said that the TDP, during its rule, had never harassed the community but Jagan Mohan Reddy after becoming the CM the people of the Arya Vysya community are suffering a lot. Lokesh said, the TDP, while in power, had given maximum priority to the community leaders, including a berth in the Cabinet and in the Rajya Sabha.
Lokesh asked why the temple of Goddess Kanyaka Parameswari was damaged and why there is no representation from the Arya Vysya community in the Cabinet now. “A lone representative of the community in the Cabinet was removed from the post and no funds for the corporation,” he stated.
Several local leaders from Palamaner joined the TDP in the presence of Lokesh. The majority of them are youth and leaders from the Muslim community belonging to MC Palem and Rangapuram villages in the segment.
The representatives of the MSME met Lokesh near Charan Dhaba where they complained that the YSRCP Government revised the land cost and is charging Rs 383 more per square meter from them than the earlier TDP government.
