YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) president Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy has adopted an aggressive stance against the proposed privatisation of medical colleges that were established during his tenure as Chief Minister. Jagan has categorically stated that he will not accept the privatisation of these institutions under any circumstances.
He has warned that if the YSRCP returns to power, all such medical colleges will be brought back under complete government control. As part of his campaign against privatisation, the party has reportedly collected more than one crore signatures across Andhra Pradesh.
Jagan has now given the go-ahead to submit copies of these signatures from the YSRCP central office in Tadepalli to the Governor’s office. Addressing a meeting of party leaders later, he issued another strong warning against the move.
Terming the privatisation of medical colleges a “mega scam,” Jagan accused the Chandrababu Naidu-led government of indulging in large-scale corruption without hesitation. He alleged that the government is not only handing over the medical colleges to private entities but is also planning to pay their salaries using public funds.
According to Jagan, the government has decided to spend nearly ₹120 crore per year per medical college from the state exchequer. Questioning the rationale behind the decision, he asked whether there could be a bigger scam than diverting public money to privately run institutions.
Jagan also warned that those responsible would be held accountable and that a strong lesson would be taught to Chandrababu Naidu in the future. Following his remarks, discussions have reportedly begun over who would be willing to take up the development of the medical colleges under the proposed Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model.
