AP CM Chandrababu Naidu was one man who wanted special status to AP for the all benefits as per law. But when the centre and Union Ministers Venkaiah and Arun Jaitley explained that they would give a better package to AP leaving the name of special status he agreed for the same.
But Pawan Kalyna the Jana Sena leader found fault with Babu along with Jagan over the issue. They staged a dhrna in Visakhapatnam.
Now in the assembly Chandrababu Babu threw a challenge to Pawan Kalyan who has been finding fault with Centre & State Governments for back tracking on Special Category Status. ‘Few People have been saying Special Status would bring Funds, Jobs and everything.
I am challenging them – What benefit did States which were accorded with Special Category Status receive? Let them explain, ‘ he asked. Babu opined that the centre was allocating funds to major projects and for some projects it was financing 100 percent what more one can achieve he questioned?
Babu reiterated People of AP will suffer if State Government isn’t on good terms with Centre and hence Special Package has been accepted. Even Venkaiah who has a say in the development of AP alo promised that there was no use of making hue and cry , while the centre was ready to give more than the special status in the name of funds.
