Oddly enough, there seems to be absolutely no sympathy for Chandrababu Naidu at the situation he finds himself in over the reservation issue.
It has been 18 months of an authoritarian regime with farmers being the worst affected. The loan waiver promise turned out to be a big sham.
In the name of a new capital, he has resorted to land grabbing to the tune of 1 lakh acres. As a warning to those who refused to part with their lands, the fields of farmers were burnt. He has now set his eyes on Bhogapuram.
Bauxite mining which he had opposed when in the opposition is now high on his agenda. Tribals are expendable for him.
He lost the respect of the people when he invited Telanganite KCR to the foundation ceremony of Amaravathi just to escape from the cash-for-vote scandal.
He promised to invoke the Nirbhaya Act against the perpetrators of the disgusting ‘call money’ racket, all of who belong to his party, but they are all out on bail now.
As for the special status to AP, at no stage did Naidu bring pressure on the NDA to deliver despite being in an alliance with them.The list is endless, be it his failed promise to provide a corpus fund to Brahmins, a special fund for the unemployed, loan waiver for the DWCRA groups etc.
Therefore, there is hardly any sympathy for Naidu as he is deservedly caught on the back foot in the Kapu reservation case.
