Former PCC president Ponnala Laxmaiah today slammed the address of President of india to the joint session of parliament. He termed the address as the address of the central government and not the address of the president of the country.
Speaking to media persons, he said that it was unfortunate several lies were told through the mouth of the first citizen of the country. He mocked the Statement of the president that the central government would provide MSP to the farmers of the country as per the recommendations of Professor MS Swaminathan. He asked the BJP led central government if it didn’t make a similar promise in its election manifest and alleged that the same central government had retracted from its promise by stating that it was not possible to provide the MSP. Reminding the promise of the center to double the income of the farmers by the year 2022, he said that there was only one year to fulfil its promise.
He said that neither loan disbursal target of the center was completed so far nor the MSP was increased so far. He condemned the statement of related to optical fibre network and added that the rework was introduced during their party rule while noting that it is an act of shame that the BJP led central government is using falsely claiming credit for the development programs of the congress party. He demanded the center to withdraw the three controversial farm laws and alleged that the farm laws were introduced only to benefit the corporate decor of the country.
