Left parties call for a one-day bandh in Andhra Pradesh

Demanding the establishment of a Steel Plant in Kadapa of Andhra Pradesh, CPM State secretary P Madhu announced that the Left parties would observe a one-day bandh on June 29.

While interacting with the media persons, Madhu said that all the parties and people should come forward and extend their support to make the bandh a success. Stating that the centre must fulfill all the promises made to Andhra Pradesh, he said that the Kadapa Steel Plant and Vizag Railway Zone were the rights of the state. The CPM leader further criticised the centre for not acting towards the interests of the people of Andhra Pradesh.

He also informed that the Left parties and Pawan Kalyan’s JanaSena Party would conduct a seminar on Wednesday to discuss the political scenario in the state.

On the other hand, TDP’s MP, CM Ramesh, wrote a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi

, in which the AP leader said that he would go on an indefinite fast if steps weren’t taken to establish a Steel Plant in the Kadapa district.

“The Government of India filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court stating that the project is not economically viable. It appears that the said statement was based on the initial SAIL report. This news has aroused emotions of the people of Andhra Pradesh in general and those from Kadapa district in particular,” the letter, addressed to the PM, read.

Ramesh said that he “will be constrained to undertake an indefinite fast,” if the central government failed to set up the Steel Plant.
