The survey conducted by Delhi-based Centre for Media Studies on the performance of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana governments headed by N Chandrababu Naidu and K Chandrasekhar Rao respectively got different interpretations from various media houses in tune with their policies.But only one paper has completely ignored it: and that is Sakshi, owned by YSR Congress party president Y S Jaganmohan Reddy.While Eenadu carried a small one-paragraph bit quoting a press release from Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister’s Office stating that people are by and large happy with the Naidu government, Andhra Jyothy carried both negative and positive comments of the survey against Naidu, though it also highlighted Naidu government performance.
Though the CMS survey had some positive points for Naidu – it said 53 per cent of the people still have faith in Naidu and 59 per cent of them felt Naidu is trying to implement his poll promises, there are a lot of negative points against him.For example, the survey said people are quite unhappy over the failure of his administration in resolving people’s problems; corruption has grown by leaps and bounds in all departments; ministers are not accessible to the common people and lack of employment opportunities to the youth etc.
All in all, Naidu has failed to consolidate the support of majority sections of people, the survey said.Well, Jagan’s Sakshi could have highlighted all these points and used them to attack the Naidu government. But it completely ignored the survey results. Reason: the survey also made some critical comment against Jagan.It said the YSR Congress party also miserably failed to cash in on the growing dissatisfaction among the people over the Naidu government and that he was not able to grow politically due to inexperienced handling of the party affairs by Jagan.
So, if Sakshi has to carry the survey report, somebody would definitely question his part as well. Therefore, it is better to keep silent, Sakshi people might have felt.
