CM Jagan emphasised that the manifesto is a sacred document, unlike the colourful promises made by others during elections. He said that the YSRCP treated it as a Bhagavad Gita, Holy Bible and Holy Qur’an. He also highlighted that the party distributed its manifesto to the government officials and the people. Our party also shared the progress report with the people on the poll promises made to them during the 2019 elections in the state, he added.

Targeting the TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu, CM Jagan said people believed the words of the opposition leader and elected his party to power in 2014, however, he failed to fulfill the promises made in their manifesto. He also accused Chandrababu Naidu of deceiving the people regarding loan waivers, Dwakra loans, and zero-interest deductions. He remarked that Naidu had lied about developing the state beyond Singapore and building a hi-tech city in every city.
