Communist Party of India State secretary K. Narayana on
Saturday alleged that ‘corrupt' leaders such as Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy
were trying to become Chief Minister only to protect their ill-gotten
wealth.
He also lashed out at Roads and Buildings
Minister Dharmana Prasada Rao for ‘indulging in corrupt activities' and
‘grabbing government land on the national highway using benamis'.

Addressing
a press conference here, Mr. Narayana said the CPI would extend its
support to the Telugu Desam Party in all the 18 Assembly and the Nellore
Lok Sabha seat in by-elections on June 12.
The party
was planning a series of agitations – from June 5 to 15 and again from
June 24 to 30 – to highlight ‘the misrule' of the Congress and the
atrocities of the mining mafia in the State. People's issues such as
hike in property tax, escalation of prices of all essential commodities
would also be highlighted during the agitation.
“We
plan to stage protests in front of excise offices on May 25 to highlight
the loopholes in the liquor policy.” CPI MLC Jalli Wilson, district
secretary Ch. Sundarlal and senior leader G.V. Satyanarayana Murthy were
present.
