In what can be considered as an open revolt, Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister K E Krishnamurthy on Tuesday strongly criticized Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu for trying to dominate the Assembly proceedings and not giving any chance to his Cabinet colleagues to speak. In the same breath, Krishnamurthy gave a pat to Leader of the Opposition Y S Jaganmohan Reddy for improving his speech and timely raking up the issues in the Assembly.
Interacting with media persons in the Assembly Lobbies here after a break, Krishnamurthy said Naidu was ignoring the ministers and other members of the ruling party and was talking on the issues raked up by the Opposition. “The ministers ought to respond on the issues taken up by the Opposition,” he maintained.
He said Jagan had timely raised the issues in the House and the government had to give priority to the Rayalaseema region with respect to supply of irrigation waters. “I have already informed the Chief Minister about this,” he said. “The YSRCP was taking every chance on the issues being responded by the CM.
Though we are not inviting, many leaders from YSRCP are willing to join the ruling TDP,” he said. Krishnamurthy said a foundation stone for the new capital would be laid after getting all resources which may take two more years. Jagan’s speech might have impressed the peasants, who are denying land for the new capital region, he added.
