Hyderabad, January 30
“It is only the TDP that provides the maximum opportunities for the youth in politics and I will take the responsibility to give them the maximum chances in politics once our party is back in power,” said Nara Lokesh, the TDP national general secretary at Palamaner on Monday.
Lokesh had an interaction with the youth along his pada yatra ‘Yuva Galam’ on Monday and said that after the YSRCP came to power the youth are the worst sufferers as there are no employment opportunities and even the fee-reimbursement is discontinued. The youth present there totally agreed with Mr Lokesh and walked along with him.
“So, let us all work to dethrone this psycho rule and bring back the cycle regime. Yuva Galam is an opportunity for us all now and let us utilise it,” the youth present at the pada yatra gave a call to the young generation in the State. They also complained that the jobless youth are migrating to the neighbouring States in search of employment which is causing a great concern to their parents. Some of them said that if they raise their voice that there are no employment opportunities, police cases are being registered against them.
Responding to this, Lokesh promised that once the TDP is back in power no more migrations will be there as every possible measure will be initiated to provide employment to the youth. “I am assuring all of you that industries will be set up at Palamaner which will create jobs. Also, Lokesh said that the youth will be encouraged to join politics as it is the TDP that always provided opportunities for them.
“Leave alone setting up new companies in the State, the existing ones which launched their units here during the Chandrababu Naidu rule, are leaving the State due to harassment and imposition of heavy taxes by this Government,” Lokesh observed. The people in general, industrialists in particular, are losing heavily with the heavy taxes imposed on them, he added.
Stating that he will fulfill all the promises that he is making now, Lokesh said “I never utter lies like the CM, Jagan. I make a promise only that I can fulfill,” he observed.
Passing through Panthas Halli on the Andhra Pradesh-Karnataka border, Lokesh filled his car and other vehicles in his convoy with petrol and paid the bill from his pocket. Later, he explained the difference in the prices of petrol and diesel in Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka. “While the price of petrol per litre in Karnataka is Rs 102, it is Rs 111.50 in Andhra Pradesh while the diesel per litre in Karnataka is Rs 88 as against Rs 99.27 in Andhra Pradesh,” Lokesh explained.
