Mr. Somu Veerraju, a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader in Andhra Pradesh, promises liquor at Rs. 70.
On the 28th of December, Tuesday, the BJP leader addressed a public meeting in Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh (A.P.) During the public meeting, Mr. Somu Veerraju said, “Cast one crore votes for the Bharatiya Janata Party…we will provide liquor for just Rs. 70. If we have more revenue left, then, we will provide liquor for just Rs. 50.”
Gearing up for the 2024 Andhra Pradesh Assembly elections, this is said to be the first promise of the BJP unit in the Telugu State. Continuing, Mr. Somu Veerraju also criticised the Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party (YSRCP) Government for selling cheap liquor under brand and labels. He said, “Liquor is being sold under labels like ‘Special Status’, ‘Governor’s Medal’. They are not selling branded liquor. They said full liquor prohibition but are making and selling brandy.”
Later, he also pointed out how the Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy led YSRCP Government is drinking people’s blood. He said, a person spends thousands on liquor and by providing cheap liquor, the YSRCP extracts the money to use it for welfare schemes. He also highlighted the unchanged MRPs even after the State Government announced reduction in Value Added Tax (VAT.)
The efforts of Mr. Somu Veerraju is said to be in the view of the next Assembly elections of Andhra Pradesh, scheduled in 2022. This time, besides the Telugu Desam Party (TDP,) the BJP is also trying to have a hold in the Telugu States and trying to attract voters.
