‘The new system was introduced without feasibility study’
Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national general secretary and MLC N. Lokesh has demanded that the State government must ensure justice to the Group-I mains examination candidates.
Taking part in a virtual meeting with the candidates on Thursday, Mr. Lokesh said that the government must explain as to why complaints pertaining to the examination were pouring in. “The digital evaluation was taken up without any prior study on its feasibility.The government has to release a white paper on the digital evaluation to clear the doubts of the candidates,” he said.
Mr. Lokesh accused Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy of going back on his ‘much-trumpeted’ election slogan of Nenu unnanu, nenu vinnanu (I am here. I listened). “After coming to power, Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy started listening only to the unlawful elements, not to the aspiring youth,” he alleged.
‘TDP, if elected, will reopen Anna Canteens, slash taxes’
TDP national general secretary N. Lokesh on Saturday urged people to wisely use their vote in the municipal elections.
Addressing an election meeting here along with former MLA D. Janardhan Rao, he claimed that “people are repenting for having given one change to the YSRCP in the 2019 elections.”
“Another chance now will prove to be a disaster,” Mr. Lokesh observed.
“The YSRCP has lost the people’s confidence, and is therefore resorting to overt and covert methods to force the TDP candidates to withdraw from contest,” Mr. Lokesh alleged.
If the TDP was elected to the urban local bodies, Anna Canteens would be reopened, he said. He also said that the arrears of property and water taxes would be waived. The property and water taxes would be reduced by 50%, he promised.
