Political Parties crave for Mileage @ Special Status
By: Tupaki Desk | 30 July 2016 8:56 AM GMT
As Centre has yet again made it clear that Special Category Status willn't be accorded to AP, Major Political Parties in the state were busy measuring the kind of mileage they would gaining from the issue. Congress surprised everyone with the Private Members Bill seeking Special Status. It even ended on a high note after staging a walk out protesting the reply given by Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley.
Both these developments came as a shock to Ruling Party & Main Opposition in Andhra Pradesh. Neither of them expected Congress to respond in such a manner on the Special Status issue. Although Congress lacked the commitment on Special Status, Its strategy to corner the Central and State Government worked out. Now, Leaderships of TDP and YCP are regretting for missing out an opportunity and giving scope for Congress to encash it.
Unfortunately, Political Parties were worried about the mileage rather than injustice being done to the People of AP. Why none of these parties were able to lead a movement so far? Can our Politicians work for people instead of focussing only on personal gains?
