'None of the Super Six promises were implemented and law and order [is] deteriorating with harassment and false cases,' he pointed to curbs on his visits to Sattenapalli and Podili as examples of repression. 'My visit to Sattenapalli on Wednesday in a curfew-like situation shows the measures of repressive methods being adopted by Chandrababu Naidu government,' he said.

Chandrababu Naidu failed as CM, anti-incumbency set in: Jagan Mohan Reddy
VIJAYAWADA: Former Chief Minister and YSRCP president YS Jagan Mohan Reddy said the overwhelming response to his recent tours was a standing testimony to the huge anti-incumbency that has set in within one year of the TDP-led NDA government. Speaking to the media at the YSRCP central office in Tadepalli on Thursday, Jagan said Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu is scared due to his failure in governance, and that his impatience is being manifested in diversion politics, and foisting false cases against political opponents. 'The modus operandi is to catch a small person like a gunman or a PA, use coercion methods to seek confession, and file cases against popular YSRCP leaders who support me, unmindful of the fact that people can see through his game,' Jagan deplored. He pointed out that the 'Betrayal Day' observed on June 4 received an overwhelming response from the public, showing that anti-incumbency has set in very fast, as none of the NDA Super Six promises have been implemented. Jagan questioned the repressive methods being adopted by the NDA government, citing his visit to Sattenapalli on Wednesday under curfew-like conditions. 'What is wrong if the Opposition leader visits to console a family, and people are coming in large numbers as they are vexed with the government, and are looking towards the YSRCP?' he asked. YSRCP leaders and those close to him are being jailed based on fabricated cases built on false confessions, he said. 'Atrocities on women and young girls are growing, and no complaint is being received, nor is any investigation taken up. Only after the Kuppam incident was trolled on social media, Naidu reacted. Farmers are in distress, and not getting MSP for any crop,' he rued. Sharmila's phone tapping charge refuted Jagan refuted the charges of APCC chief YS Sharmila that her phone, along with those of her husband and close associates, were tapped during the previous BRS regime in Telangana, and the YSRCP rule in AP. He said the BRS regime might have tapped her phone as she was playing a crucial role in Telangana through her political party at that time, and reiterated that the YSRCP has no role in the rumours going viral on social media.

Andhra govt failed to fulfil promises and safeguard law: Jagan
YSR Congress party president YS Jagan Mohan Reddy on Thursday claimed that the huge turnout of people to his rallies and tours in the rural areas is a clear indication to the growing anti-incumbency against the Telugu Desam Party-led coalition government in Andhra Pradesh headed by chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu. Addressing a press conference at his Tadepalli residence, Jagan said the overwhelming response of the people to his recent tours was a standing testimony of the huge anti-incumbency that has set in within one year of the Naidu regime. 'The huge success of Betrayal Day on June 4 with tremendous response from the people in all parts of the state shows the people are vexed with the Naidu government which failed to implement his Super Six promises and safeguard law and order in the state,' Jagan said. He said his visit to Sattenapalli on Wednesday in a 'curfew-like situation' showed the measure of repressive methods being adopted by the Chandrababu Naidu government. 'What is wrong if the Opposition leader visits to console a family? The people have turned up in large numbers to see me, as they are vexed with the government and are looking towards YSRCP,' he claimed. Jagan said even during his visit to Podili to call on the distressed tobacco farmers last week, the government tried to scuttle the event by imposing huge restrictions when milling crowds had come to see him. 'A handful of TDP workers tried to disrupt the meeting while farmers who came in large numbers had maintained restraint. Yet, cases were filed against farmers and not those who tried to disrupt the rally,' he said. 'There is severe repression in the state and people are venting their ire at every given opportunity by extending support to all our programmes,' he said. TDP president and chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu said Jagan's so-called condolence tours were meant for instigating violence. 'He has violated all police permissions for his tours, held gatherings in narrow alleys leading to stampedes, encouraged violence, and blamed the police,' he said. He said the way the YSRCP mobilised crowds for Jagan's tour, violating the police restrictions, was highly condemnable. 'If such people flood the streets, it will lead to dangerous consequences. The public must stay alert,' he said. He emphasised that maintaining law and order in the state is a top priority for the coalition government and urged people to think seriously about the kind of leadership they want shaping the future.

Ex-CM Jagan Reddy alleges law & order deteriorated in AP
Vijayawada, June 19 (UNI) Alleging that Chandrababu Naidu is scared for his failure in governance and his impatience is being manifested in diversion politics and foisting false cases against political opponents, former chief minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy on Thursday claimed the overwhelming response to his recent visits is a standing testimony of the huge anti-incumbency that rose within one year. Speaking to the media here, Jagan Mohan Reddy alleged that Chief Minister Chandrababu is misusing power to muzzle the voice of opposition leaders. The huge success of Betrayal Day which got an overwhelming response shows that anti-incumbency has set in very fast as none of the Super Six promises were implemented and law and order deteriorated with harassment and false cases, he claimed. 'I visited Sattenapalli on Wednesday in a curfew-like situation which shows the measure of repressive methods being adopted by Chandrababu Naidu government. What is wrong if the Opposition leader visits to console a family and people are coming in large numbers as they are vexed with the government and are looking towards YSRCP,' he questioned. 'The YSRCP leaders, who are close to Jagan Mohan Reddy, are being jailed based on false cases based on confessional statements by small people. This is how Vallabhaneni Vamsi, Dhanunjaya Reddy, Krishnamohan Reddy, Raj Kasireddy, Nandigama Suresh and others were held and trying to implicate Peddireddy Ramachandra Reddy and P V Mithun Reddy,' he slammed. The apex court had to use its discretionary powers to grant bail to Kommineni Srinivasa Rao who was arrested using the same modus operandi. Then what action should be taken against those TDP workers and leaders who attacked Sakshi properties at multiple locations which is nothing short of unbridled rowdyism, he asked. "Farmers are in distress and not getting MSP for any crop. They are forced to sell paddy for Rs 300 less and five farmers have committed suicides. The government has no concern, and if anyone questions, Chandrababu Naidu says that dissent and Opposition will be grounded," Jagan Mohan Reddy lashed out. UNI DP SS
