Amaravati, April 9 (SocialNews.XYZ) Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister, N. Chandrababu Naidu, on Thursday mocked YSR Congress Party President, Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, over his ‘MAVIGUN’ proposal and also took a swipe stating "good that he didn’t suggest Vatican as the state capital."
For the uninitiated, Vatican City is an independent city-state enclaved within Rome, Italy and is the spiritual and administrative centre of the Roman Catholic Church.
Addressing a public meeting in Bapatla district, the Chief Minister lashed out at the former Chief Minister for mooting ‘MAVIGUN (Machilipatnam, Vijayawada, Guntur) corridor as the state capital.
He made it clear that Amaravati will be developed as the only and permanent capital of Andhra Pradesh.
“Amaravati will not stop even if 1,000 psychos like you try to stop it,” said the Chief Minister.
He said 49 parties in the Parliament supported the bill to give statutory recognition to Amaravati as the sole and permanent state capital. He said not just NDA partners but other parties also supported it.
Chandrababu Naidu said YSRCP was the only one party to oppose the Bill. “We use to call a leader a psycho but the entire party has become psycho,” he remarked.
The Chief Minister said YSRCP was talking about women’s dignity and recalled that the same party insulted Amaravati women and indulged in their character assassination. He said they also abused his wife in the Assembly.
“A rowdy batch exhibiting psychotic behaviour, is engaging in perverse arguments. They are attacking a newspaper without any provocation. They have harassed women. This psycho party is in no position to provide an explanation for such behaviour,” he said.
Alleging that attempts are being made to destroy the state, he called up on people to unitedly defeat such attempts. “The state has already suffered immense losses due to its bifurcation and the actions of previous rulers. We have just began the process of rebuilding it,” he said.
Stating terrorists lurking in forests launch attacks and then flee, he remarked that this individual is no different as he operates from a distance, spreads malicious propaganda, and runs away.
“We are prepared to respond to constructive criticism but they are spreading falsehoods by claiming that Rs. 2 lakh crore are being spent on Amaravati. The fact is that Amaravati is self-financed project,” he said.
He said the YSRCP keep mentioning Vijayawada, Guntur, and Machilipatnam, apparently unaware that this entire area constitutes the CRDA (Capital Region Development Authority) region.
“Out of an aversion to even uttering the name Amaravati, they are attempting to create chaos and cause distress to the public. It would take me mere moments to have individuals of this nature arrested but the law will be allowed to take its own course,” he said.
“If individuals intent on creating destruction are allowed to roam free, can the people, particularly the women of this state ever truly feel safe,” he asked.
Chandrababu Naidu stated that is in the best interest of the people to simply forget about such parties and individuals.
