After Karnataka and Telangana it is Andhra. The TDP wants to give free travel in RTC buses to the women. Chandrababu the TDP Chief announced the free RTC rides for women and free sand policy programs that are to be implemented in the TDP-JSP government.
Babu knows that it is not good for the finances of RTC, but there is no other way to win the election as Jagan is already giving so many sops to the people of Andhra.
Chandrababu announced that the alliance government will ensure free APSRTC travel to female passengers. This is in line with the free RTC travel scheme for women that is in effect in Karnataka and Telangana.
He announced the free sand policy that was in effect in TDP regime between 2014-19 will be brought back in the alliance government again in 2024.
This addresses a burning topic in Andhra Pradesh where the YCP government is facing allegations of illegal sand sales.
The TS Government is finding it difficult to accommodate women in the RTC buses. Women are boarding the buses in large numbers and the auto men are facing the brunt.
