Women Are Not Safe In AP: Roja

Visakhapatnam: YSR Congress Party MLA RK Roja lambasted the ruling TDP government and said that women were not safe in the state. Talking to media here today, she said that the culprits in medical student Rishiteshwari episode were scot-free. Similarly, no action has been initiated against TDP MLA Chintamaneni Prabhakar who had attacked MRO Vanajakshi, she lamented.

Roja said that Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu's government was anti-women and added that TDP leaders were directly involved in Call Money issue. Chandrababu governance was worse than British rule. Having understood that there was no use allying with BJP, AP CM was trying to forge alliance with Congress, she said.

The YSRCP MLA said that Chandrababu was ready to do anything to stay in power. The stage was set for TDP to get merged with Congress. She expressed her surprise over TDP joining hands with Congress which had bifurcated the state in an unscientific manner. She called upon the women to come forward to drive away the TDP rule in the state and elect YSRCP in the next polls. Women would be safe in AP only after YSRCP President YS Jagan Mohan Reddy becomes the CM, she added.
