Youth Cong. to apprise President about TDP Govt. 'misrule'

By Our Special Correspondent

HYDERABAD, JUNE 6. The AP Youth Congress at its executive here on Tuesday decided to launch a signature campaign to seek the dismissal of the TDP Government.

Addressing a press conference, Mr.R.S. Surjewala, president of the Indian Youth Congress, said they would collect 50 lakh signatures against the ``anti-people '' policies of the State Government to submit a memorandum to the President.

Mr. Surjewala said the life of commoners had become miserable with the ``competition'' between the State and the Central Governments in hiking the prices of commodities. The State Government was resorting to several ``anti-poor measures '' at the bidding of the World Bank.

The power tariff hike was a glaring example and people would not be in a position to pay their power bills, he said. The Government had failed in collecting Rs. 1,600-crore dues from the industrial sector and had burdened the common man. Referring to drought, he said the Government could have forced the Centre to release sufficient funds to tackle the drought but failed in doing so.

Earlier, the State executive of the A.P.Youth Congress was attended by the PCC president, Mr.M. Satyanarayana Rao, the MLA, Mr. Nagender, and the AP Youth Congress president, Mr.P. Sudhakar Reddy.
