TDP-JSP combine will not continue reforms initiated by YSRCP if voted to power, says A.P. CM Jagan Mohan Reddy. Chief Minister releases an amount of ₹708.68 crore towards fee reimbursement under the Vidya Deevena scheme for the quarter October-December, 2023.
The Andhra Pradesh government on March 1 (Friday) released an amount of ₹708.68 crore towards fee reimbursement under the Jagananna Vidya Deevena scheme for the quarter October-December, 2023.
Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy released the amount that would benefit 9,44,666 students at a programme organised at Pamarru in Krishna district.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy lambasted TDP national president and former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu and Jana Sena Party (JSP) chief Pawan Kalyan for “deriding the YSRCP government’s schemes and programmes” during their recent joint public meeting at Tadepalligudem.
“It is unfortunate that Mr. Naidu and his foster son (Mr. Pawan Kalyan), and their friendly media have declared a war on the reforms initiated by the YSRCP government in the education sector,” the Chief Minister said.
He alleged that reforms initiated by the government would not continue if the TDP-JSP combine was voted to power. The government had spent ₹72,919 crore on educational reforms benefitting lakhs of students, he said.
The government was making huge investments in the education sector as education alone could eradicate poverty, he said.
“The results of the reforms are tangible with our school students representing the country in the U.N. fora. It’s not just right to education, but right to quality education too is the need of the hour,” he observed.
