YSR Congess Party's rank and file in the Chandragiri
constituency celebrated the party's Foundation Day on Monday by carrying
aloft through the streets a 1,000-foot long party flag amid pro-YSR and
pro-Jaganmohan Reddy slogans.
Speaking after
paying homage at YSR samadhi at Idupulapaya on the first Foundation Day
of the party, she recalled that her husband and former Chief Minister
Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy had implemented a plethora of welfare schemes
without enhancing taxes in his rule. YSR brought Congress to power for a
second term, but the successive Chief Ministers were neglecting the
schemes launched during YSR regime, she alleged.
Meanwhile,
YSR Congress Party leader and former Kadapa Mayor garlanded former
Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy's portrait, hoisted the party flag
and cut a cake in the party office.
YSR Trade Union
president G.N.S. Murthy and members led a massive rally of passenger and
luggage autorickshaws, mini-lorries, motorcycles and four-wheelers from
Sandhya circle to YSR statue near the head post office here. YSR
Congress leaders S.B. Amjad Basha, T.K. Afzal Ali Khan, Mohd.
Hafeezullah and Mr. Murthy took part.
Kurnool Special
Correspondent adds: The supporters of YSR Congress celebrated the
party's foundation day here on Monday. Even though the main leaders of
the party were away at Kovvur for taking part in the campaign along with
Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy, the local leaders and cadres took initiative to
organise celebrations.
The supporters anointed the statues of YSR at eight places in the city with milk and garlanded them.
