Kakinada: Reiterating the need to end two-party rule in Andhra Pradesh, Praja Rajyam president K. Chiranjeevi said on Saturday that his party was borne out of the people’s desire for a change in the political establishment and it was up to them to choose between PRP and the other major parties.

Much-needed fillip

The PRP has immeasurable love of people and it was therefore confident of its victory in the coming elections. The allotment of a common symbol by Election Commission gave the much-needed fillip to the PRP at the right time, he asserted.

Speaking at a roadshow at Sarpavaram Junction here, he said both the Congress and the TDP governments were inefficient and the people’s living conditions deteriorated as a consequence.

“It is imperative that the two main parties should be taught a lesson lest the people’s sufferings should increase.” The plight of working class was the worst as successive governments implemented policies which aggravated the problems. The Kakinada Special Economic Zone and coastal industrial corridor resulted in large-scale displacement of farmers and fishermen.

Converting fertile lands for industrial development created ecological imbalances, he alleged.

‘Silent revolution’

Mr. Chiranjeevi said the Congress and the TDP, which belittled the PRP as an insignificant entity, should see for themselves the spontaneous support it was getting from the masses and come to a conclusion whether it was just a fluke or a silent revolution bound to catapult PRP to power. He later proceeded to Tallarevu, Draksharamam, Ramachandrapuram, Mandapeta, Anaparthi and Rajanagaram.
