 After announcing his party’s support for the separate State demand, Prajarajyam Party president Chiranjeevi received a tremendous response yesterday. Chiranjeevi, who began this third day of Praja Ankita Yatra from the coal town of Responding to their demand, the actor-turned-politician said he was clear and transparent in his views and his party’s stand on the issue. “I have made it very clear that the Prajarajyam Party would go by the aspirations of the people and would accept the formation of the separate state. It would not halt the process in no way,” he told the protesters. Chiranjeevi then thanked the TRS and BJP activists for joining him with their party flags during his ankita yatra. “Only those people who are not clear on their demand for the separate State will find fault with our stand on the separate state issue,” he said. Later, Chiranjeevi paid tributes to the coal workers who died in coal mines accidents and demanded the government to improve the working conditions of the coal workers. “There is also disparity in their work and wages they get. My party, if voted to power, would suitably increase their wages and would give them more honour in their work,” Chiranjeevi added. Chiranjeevi said that the root cause of many problems was corruption and promised to fight against the corruption in all spheres. “Only low level employees who take Rs 5,000 or less bribes are being caught and punished, while those taking hundreds of crores are going scot-free,” he said. |
