Nadendla Manohar challenges Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy to visit the fisherfolk to realise impact of policies
Jana Sena Party Political Affairs Committee chairman Nadendla Manohar on Monday challenged Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy to visit the coastal communities to see the reality of his policies on employment. He claimed that the migration of fisherfolk in search of livelihood was at its peak in northern Andhra Pradesh.
Speaking to newsmen at a press conference here, Mr. Manohar said that over 25,000 fisherfolk youth from Srikakulam and Vizianagaram districts had migrated in search of employment. A majority of them migrated to Gujarat to eke out their livelihood in marine fishing.
“We challenge the Chief Minister to visit the coastal communities to witness that nothing has been changed in terms of employment opportunities for the fisherfolk with his policies,” Mr. Manohar said. He asserted that the existing policies of the State government had led to the rise in unemployment.

Former CM B.S. Yediyurappa had challenged the first information report registered on March 14, 2024, on the alleged incident that occurred on February 2, 2024, the chargesheet filed by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), and the February 28, 2025, order of taking cognisance of offences afresh by the trial court.
