WARANGAL: Lok Satta Party leader N. Jayaprakash Narayan on Sunday found fault with both the ruling and the opposition parties and held them responsible for the police firing at Mudigonda in Khammam district.
Mr. Narayan who was here to attend his party’s regional meeting told reporters that the State Government should take into consideration peoples’ aspirations.
The opposition parties should maintain restraint while leading agitations and restrain from instigating innocent public. Political parties were only trying to gain mileage out of the issue rather condemning it.
They should pledge to strive to maintain law and order and protect the lives of poor people.
Media criticised
He took exception to the behaviour of media personnel who were jumping to conclusions. The media, instead of judging, should centre its activity around people and dig deep into the issues concerning them. Mr. Narayan said the party would launch an agitation against illegal sale of liquor and ensure that all the belt shops in the State were closed.
Beginning October 2, the party would mobilise people, particularly women at the village level.
Chief Minister Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy claimed that there were no belt shops in the State, but there were 1.8 lakh shops in Andhra Pradesh, he maintained.
“Our party cadre will undertake a survey and submit it to the Government,” he said. Similarly, Lok Satta would also agitate for proper functioning of fair price shops in the State. Party leader Parcha Kodandarama Rao and others were present.
