Idupulapaya to Ichapuram another political masterstroke by Jagan

Written By news on Thursday, October 11, 2012 | 10/11/2012


Carrying forward the legacy of her father Dr Y S Rajasekhara Reddy’s mass contact programme, Sharmila will undertake padayatra from Idupulapaya in Dr YSR district to Ichapuram in Srikakulam on October 18.
The 3,000 km march, which is longer than Dr Reddy’s padayatra undertaken in 2003 and the first by a woman in the country, will traverse through 110 Assembly segments in YSR, Anantapur, Kurnool, Telangana and coastal Andhra districts and the road map and other details are being worked out.
Christened “Maro Praja Prasthanam,” which is akin to her father’s historic Praja Prasthanam, the padayatra had the blessings of YSRC president Y S Jaganmohan Reddy and is expected to give a run for the money of Congress and Telugu Desam.
Though the party leaders resolved that Sharmila should take up the padayatra, a final decision was announced only after YSRC honorary president Y S Vijayamma met Jaganmohan Reddy in the Chanchalguda jail this morning.
Despite being incarcerated in jail for over four months, Jaganmohan Reddy did not lose heart and instead, has been devising innumerable “behind the scene” strategies to keep the party alive and kicking.
Asking Sharmila to undertake the march to raise the heckles of Congress and Telugu Desam leaders is nothing but another political masterstroke by him.
One can see his signature in every decision taken by the party, right from organising protests on people’s issues to meeting Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh and other national leaders like Sharad Pawar and Sharad Yadav besides President Pranab Mukherjee a couple of days ago.
This is one reason why the Congress and Telugu Desam do not want him to be free and the decisions of various courts in not granting bail to him and the probes by different agencies has limited the damage to a certain extent.
TDP president N Chandrababu Naidu is roaming on the streets saying that he was calling on distressed sections of the society to console them and not for returning to power or to introduce his US educated former World Bank executive son Nara Lokesh Naidu into politics.
If at all Chandrababu Naidu did this during his nine-year-rule, when the monsoon failed for six years, the Congress would have been buried 20 feet below the ground with no hopes of resurrection. Now there is no point in crying over spilled milk and Naidu has a long way to go before regaining people’s confidence.
Plagued by dissension from his own ranks, Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy, who occupied the seat by default and not by merit or sheer hard work, has been touring the state only to prove that he is still in the same post.
The leaders of both the parties seem to be working with a single motto of sharing power by turns and are reluctant to provide room for third and emerging forces like YSRC and Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) to challenge their hegemony.
But they were proved wrong on at least four times when by-elections were held in the state.
While Telugu Desam drew blank on all four occasions, the Congress managed to save its face by winning two seats in the last by-election. Still, the two parties persist with old agenda unmindful of the public opinion.
Sharmila, during the course of her padayatra, will highlight the failure of state government and its nexus with TDP in targeting Jaganmohan Reddy who approved the road map prepared by the party’s Political Affairs Committee (PAC).
“Sharmila will carry out the programme and will be joined with other family members and when Jagan babu is released from jail, he will take over from us,” Vijayamma told reporters at her Lotus Pond residence in Hyderabad on Thursday.
The proposed padayatra will focus on the lack of governance and the anarchy prevailing in the state, the dilution of welfare schemes launched by Dr Rajasekhara Reddy, the indifferent attitude of the rulers towards issues all sections of the society including farmers, workers, students, women and minorities on one hand and the nexus between Congress and the TDP, she said.
The YSRC will create a public opinion forcing the TDP to move a no-confidence motion against the state government which neither governs nor cares for the common man. “Watering down fee reimbursement scheme, erratic power supply to farmers and why TDP is not playing its role as the main Opposition will be raised during the march,” she said.
The YSRC has been fighting on public issues ever since it came into existence and will continue to do so in future. “Our programme will aim at raising public opinion against the thick-skinned state government and an equally numb and compromising TDP and force a no-confidence motion at the earliest,” she added.
