Team of doctors visiting Nallamalla tribal areas

PRP is deputing a team of doctors headed by Dr.Mitra to visit the Nallamalla forest areas abutting Srisailam, where Chenchu tribals are dying of Malnutrition.
Chiranjeevi has said that PRP will take care of the medical facilities in the remote tribal areas since the government has failed to provide the basic ameneties to the people.
In a separate press conference in the party office, Senior leader of the Praja Rajyam, K. Vidyadhar Rao on Saturday criticised Chief Miister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy for chilling out at Shimla while farmers in the State were suffering from power problems at the height of the agricultural season.
He said that it was akin to Nero playing the fiddle while Rome was on fire. Crops were drying up and farmers were suffering without a minimum support price for most of the produce. While prices of essential commodities were skyrocketing, Government was still not taking any corrective measures, he said.
Mr. Rao said that post-elections, it was as if Government was on a holiday. “When people suffer from skyrocketing prices of essential commodities and when farmers need minimum support price, it is expected of any Government to come to their rescue. This is not being seen here in this State,” he said. In such a situation, the State would be better off under the Governor’s rule or a regime of all political parties put together.
From nine hours of power a day, it had come down to seven hours and then to five hours only, he said, wondering why the power situation was this bad despite demand coming down .
Referring to the instance of poaching in Balmoor mandal of Mahbubnagar district, he regretted that there was no action on the poachers till Friday evening.
