Amaravati, Nov 9 (NationPress) The YSR Congress Party is set to conduct constituency-level rallies on November 12 to protest the privatisation of medical colleges in Andhra Pradesh.

During a recent meeting, YSRCP State Coordinator Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy urged party leaders to transform this initiative into a potent public movement.

He claimed that the coalition government has severely compromised the healthcare system and highlighted the necessity to amplify the public's escalating discontent.

In a teleconference with members from the Central Executive Committee (CEC) and State Executive Committee (SEC), as well as other representatives, Sajjala emphasized that the upcoming rallies should reflect the voice of the people and capture national attention.

Reddy called for the inclusion of various groups, including caste communities, non-profit organizations, labor unions, and other allies, to fortify the protest.

He instructed leaders to diligently work on establishing party committees at the grassroots level and to digitize all organizational information. Completing these frameworks, he asserted, would assist in assembling a robust team of 130,000 members and improve future programme coordination.

YSRCP Central Office In-charge Lella Appi Reddy encouraged all leaders to ensure that the rallies on November 12 effectively communicate public sentiment and robustly showcase the party's opposition to the coalition government's policies.

In a related note, YSRCP spokesperson and former MP Gorantla Madhav accused the Telugu Desam Party leaders of violently targeting members of the Kuruba community since the coalition took power.

Madhav expressed that it was unacceptable for state minister Nara Lokesh to honor the statue of Sri Bhakta Kanakadasu while Kuruba families continue to live in fear and face persistent assaults.

He shared with the media that during YS Jagan Mohan Reddy's administration, Kuruba families received respect and support.

However, post-coalition, TDP leaders have allegedly targeted these families, inflicting harassment and violence.

He remarked that the same individuals responsible for these actions are now feigning concern, which he deemed insulting to the community.

Madhav pointed out incidents involving the killings of Kuruba Lingamayya in Rapthadu, Bandaru Veeranna in Alur, and Murali in Kanaganapalli, holding TDP leaders accountable for these crimes.

He noted that even when YS Jagan visited the victims’ families, about 50 members from the Kuruba community were falsely charged by the government.

Madhav insisted that Nara Lokesh should visit Lingamayya's family, apologize, and pay his respects, while also demanding the immediate retraction of the illegal cases against Kuruba community members.
