'Will not call off strike till demands met'

YSR Congress Party honorary president YS Vijayamma and her party MLAs continued their indefinite hunger-strike for the second day at the New MLA quarters on Wednesday demanding immediate withdrawal of power tariff hike.

Speaking to Sakshipost, YS Vijayamma made it clear that she would not call off her 'Satyagraha' till the government did a rollback on the hike.

She criticized the government's escapist way of not confronting the problems. The government fled away without discussing the power issues in the Assembly, she said.  Vijayamma demanded that the government initiate a discussion on power problems in the Assembly.

Meanwhile, the doctors conducted a medical check-up of Vijayamma and other fasting MLAs. They have declared that her condition is deteriorating. Her blood sugar levels are low, they added.
