Naidu vows to abolish Land Titling Act

Vijayawada: Telugu Desam chief Nara Chandrababu Naidu on Wednesday vowed to append his second signature on the file to abolish the AP Land Titling Act once the three-party alliance gets the people’s nod to form the next government. Addressing a large gathering as part of Prajagalam at Chirala in Bapatla district, he alleged that the act would result in illegal grabbing of lands of the people and demanded an apology from Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy for framing the law.

Naidu had already announced to sign the first file for issue of a notification for conduct of DSC to recruit teachers in government schools. The TD chief called upon the people to read the manifestos of both the NDA and the YSRC to find out difference. He listed out a series of welfare schemes mentioned in the manifesto including the 10 per cent reservation for EBCs in education and employment,



sanction of `10 lakh loan to Dwcra women to set up units for their financial self-sustenance, a health insurance coverage for `25 lakh per family, setting up generic drug stones and supply of free medicines to patients suffering from high blood pressure and blood sugar, a BC Declaration and financial aid to the weavers.

Naidu targeted the CM by saying that Jagan Mohan Reddy allowed upward revision of power tariff nine times in the last five years, resulting in the tariff going up from `200 per month to `1,000 and causing hardships to the commoners. He also listed out how prices of fuels, essential commodities including rice, dals, sugar and others had gone up. He asked the people whether the cost of cheap liquor a quarter from `60 rose to `200 and alleged that Jagan Mohan Reddy was supplying “his own” brands.
