Who should be blamed on special status issue?

 

Chiranjeevi has strongly criticized Union Minister Venkaiah Naidu and Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu for not stressing the NDA government to grant special status to the AP state. He flays the CM for constructing capital city at the cost of farmers’ lives. He flays the CM for shelving Polavaram project and carrying away with his pet project Pattiseema. Chiranjeevi said Chandrababu Naidu is afraid to ask the Prime Minister Narendra Modi to grant special status to the state.

 

But, Chiranjeevi, who is pointing his finger at others, also needs to answer some questions. He is representing the AP state in the Rajya Sabha. But, he never raised this point in the parliament, because he is preoccupied with his 150 film preparations. Then how can he blame others for not stressing for special status anyway?

 

He accepts all the privileges of being a Rajya Sabha member, but never minds to attend the parliament sessions and raise the problems of the state. Then how can he blame others for not stressing for special status?

 

Earlier, he used to present himself as a very obedient Congress leader whenever he meets Sonia Gandhi. Even today, he doesn’t forget making bhajan of Rahul Gandhi in his speech, whereas Chandrababu Naidu never forgets to remind and stress Narendra Modi for funds and projects during his every visit to New Delhi. In fact he goes to New Delhi only for reminding and demanding the Centre to implement the promises made to the state.

 

Chiranjeevi had good contacts and impression with his party high command, but he used it for his self-benefits, while ignoring the interests of the state. Would he stressed his party high command to add the special status promise in the AP Reorganization Bill, he and his fellow congress men need not to sit for a deeksha today.

 

So, it is meaningless to blame the Chief Minister or the Prime Minister or anyone on this particular issue, instead Congress leaders should blame themselves for this problem. If they can’t people are there to blame them.
