The protest programme will highlight the failures of Chandrababu Naidu government and the anti-people policies it has been pursuing. It is nearly six months, he has taken over the reins of the State but not a single poll promise has been fulfilled, farmers, women, students and all sections are left in the lurch. Before and during the elections he talked big that all the agriculture and DWACRA groups loans would be waived, pensions would be given to all and one job for one house would be provided failing which, unemployment stipend of Rs 2,000 would be paid. Not a single promise was fulfilled and farmers and women groups have become defaulters and are forced to pay penal interest as they did not repay the loans believing Chandrababu Niadus promises. The TDP President has written to the Election Commission on April 11 that he is fully aware of the arithmetic involved in the loan waiver scheme and he has worked out the feasibility of the scheme. The same thing was repeatedly told during electioneering, illuminated hoardings were set up highlighting the promises and the feasibility and pamphlets were also widely distributed to that effect, besides releasing advertisements in media. After assuming power, he has totally ignored his promises and even did not honour the five files he has signed on the day of swearing-in. He has been trying to find ways and means to downsize the quantum at every available opportunity. Though the State Level Bankers Committee meeting, which he has chaired, announced that the agriculture loans work out to Rs 87,612 cores while DWACRA loans amount to Rs 14,000 crores which sum up to Rs 1.1 lakh crores, he has just allocated RS 5,000 crores towards loan waiver in the budget and is boasting that he has cleared 20 % or loans which is an utter fallacy. The penal interest on the 1.1 lakh crores itself work out to Rs 28,000 crores for two years while he has washed his hands off by allocating just Rs 5,000 crores. This is deceiving the farmers who have believed him and did not repay the loans and have become defaulters. They are now not even eligible for crop insurance. DWACRA women groups are bearing the brunt of his deception as their savings are being attached by the banks in lieu of the default and the Chief Minister has been talking about them in a demeaning manner @iam jagan fan
