The Chandrababu Naidu government is trying to go in for heavy cost cutting by pruning expenditure on welfare schemes in the name of rationalization.
This was pointed out by YSR Congress party MLA G Srikanth Reddy on Friday.
He said the evil designs of TDP Government to deprive the genuine beneficiaries of the welfare schemes will be thwarted and YSR Congress will take up the cause of the people and fight on their behalf if the State shows discrimination on any count.
“The philosophy of the TDP governance has been like putting the cart before the horse as they are trying to cut down the number of beneficiaries to match its scanty budgetary allocations for implementing welfare schemes,” he said.
To justify its meaningless cost-cutting measures, it has appointed committees packed with anti-social elements in the garb of TDP cadre and sympathizers with the sole purpose of weeding out bogus pension and ration cards.
