Chiranjeevi said the Congress and Telugu Desam parties have institutionalised corruption and the common people lived as ‘second-rate citizens’ during their regimes as their policies benefited only the affluent sections. Congress and TDP were the only parties that ruled the State since independence and when PRP emerged in response to the people’s desire for change, they were waging a malicious propaganda against it apparently due to fear of losing the ensuing electoral battle.
The farmers’ suicides speak volumes of their ineptitude in guaranteeing remunerative prices for their produce and providing quality inputs which could have increased yields.
Irrigation projects were launched with a massive financial outlay but their purpose was not served as huge sums were swindled by contractors and some leaders of Congress party.
A huge number of villages don’t have access to clean drinking water to this day and hundreds of poor people were dying due to avoidable diseases. Little attention was paid to augmenting the infrastructure in government hospitals while corporate hospitals minted money under Arogyasri scheme because of the government’s magnanimity.

The plight of farmers became miserable as fertile lands were usurped in the name of Special Economic Zones and the proposed coastal industrial corridor between Visakhapatnam and Kakinada would be compounding their woes. These projects had a profound impact on the fisher folks who were heavily dependent on the sea for their livelihood. The list of ‘atrocities’ committed by the two main parties (Congress and TDP) goes on.
