YSRCP Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy rallies party workers, urging them to win all 175 Assembly seats in Andhra Pradesh.
Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy blew the poll bugle for the ensuing elections and announced that the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) is heading for the polls with a target to win all the 175 Assembly seats in Andhra Pradesh.
In the presence of numerous party workers, leaders, MLAs, MPs and supporters from various parts of the State during ‘Siddham’ (Ready) meeting at Sanghivalasa in Bheemunipatnam mandal in Visakhapatnam district on Saturday, Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy asked his cadre to get ready for the elections which are likely in about 70 days and work as a ‘soldiers’.
The YSRCP chief urged them to visit every house and explain to people what changes the YSRCP government has brought in their lives in the last five years, the development that has taken place in various sectors and also how the previous Telugu Desam Party government led by its chief N. Chandrababu Naidu had ‘‘deceived them with false promises’‘.
They should tell the people that the coming election is very important as it is going to be a fight between ‘good’ and ‘evil, he said.
“It is not about electing an MLA or an MP, but choosing a party which will bring the poor out of poverty; it is for the future of children,” he said.
The party activists need to tell the people not to fall prey to the ‘‘false promises which are going to be made by the TDP and its alliance partner’‘ in the coming months, he said.
Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy said that he is neither dependent on alliances nor star campaigners. His star campaigners are those who benefited by the government schemes, he said, and asked his cadre to bring a star campaigner from every house.
