YSR Congress has criticized the TDP-led coalition government for its failure in the education sector, stating that it has neglected reforms, lacks a clear vision, and reduced the “Mega Parents’ Day” event to a political drama.
Speaking to media in Proddatur, YSRCP spokesperson Rachamallu Sivaprasad Reddy described the government’s recent “Mega Parents’ Day” as a publicity stunt, claiming it provided no real benefits to students. He criticized the dismantling of impactful initiatives introduced under Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy’s leadership, including the Nadu-Nedu programme, English-medium education, and the CBSE curriculum. Sivaprasad emphasized that while YSRCP invested Rs 100 crores in schools in his constituency, the current administration failed to allocate even minimal funds for educational development.
In Bapatla, YSRCP leader and former Deputy Speaker Kona Raghupathi labeled Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu’s “Mega Meet” as a political event with no tangible outcomes. He criticized the CM for ignoring key issues like fee reimbursement, the delayed “Thalli Ki Vandanam” scheme, and the pending development of Bapatla Medical College. Raghupathi alleged that the event excluded important stakeholders to avoid questioning the government’s failures.
Both leaders slammed the TDP coalition government for prioritizing propaganda over genuine reforms, undermining public schools, and failing students. YSRCP reaffirmed its commitment to advancing educational reforms and called on the government to prioritize meaningful actions over hollow political events.
