Former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister and YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) president YS Jagan Mohan Reddy on Wednesday criticized the coalition government, saying the latest CAG report has exposed its lack of financial discipline.
He pointed out that the report confirmed what YSRCP has been consistently alleging: the coalition government took loans totaling Rs 3.2 lakh crore in just two years, nearly matching the borrowings of Rs 3.31 lakh crore during YSRCP’s entire five-year term. Jagan questioned the purpose of such massive borrowings, highlighting that key promises under the Super Six agenda remain unimplemented and state revenues have fallen, indicating widespread corruption in areas ranging from sand, land, mines, and liquor. He warned that escalating borrowings and fiscal deficits are attracting growing interest obligations, with no clear explanation from the ruling coalition.
Addressing a press conference, Jagan lambasted the coalition government for dodging accountability during the recently concluded 16-day Assembly session. He accused Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu of politicizing the Tirupati issue, even though evidence points toward his administration. Jagan alleged that the budget session was misused to spread propaganda, level false accusations against the Opposition, and glorify coalition partners, while serious questions raised by the YSRCP went unanswered.
He further criticized Chandrababu for mismanagement of temples, citing tragedies like the Tirupati stampede and the recent Kadiri incident, and raised concerns about ghee adulteration. Jagan accused the coalition government of corruption in tenders, ghee supply, and accepting rejected tankers. He claimed the price of ghee was silently hiked from Rs 351 to Rs 761 per kg to benefit select individuals, while baselessly blaming the YSRCP for malpractices.
On women’s safety, Jagan dismissed Chandrababu’s claims made during the International Women’s Day event as “sham,” citing cases of atrocities committed by TDP–Jana Sena MLAs in places like Railway Koduru, Amudalavalasa, Guntur East, and Sativedu. He alleged that complaints against a minister’s PA went unaddressed, while the TTD chairman remained unaffected despite explicit evidence circulating publicly.
Jagan contrasted the coalition government’s record with YSRCP’s tenure, stating that women’s empowerment was tangible through reservations, small business facilitation, bank loans, and partnerships with multinationals. He also emphasized that farmers suffered under the coalition due to the absence of MSP and crop insurance, while YSRCP had fulfilled these promises via RBKs. Public welfare concerns like contaminated water, unsafe milk, and unhygienic hostel conditions affecting students were also highlighted as failures of the current administration.
