YSRCP demands AP Govt. to release 'white paper' on Rs 7 lakh cr investments

Vijayawada, Mar 20 (UNI) YSRCP spokesperson Putta Sivashankar Reddy on Thursday demanded the coalition NDA Government to release a ''white paper'' on the claims of Rs 7 lakh crore investments to Andhra Pradesh.
He also demanded details on industries, locations, jobs, investment amounts, and production capacities, questioning if the government could display this at village and ward secretariats, as YSRCP did for scheme beneficiaries.
Reddy criticised state Minister Nara Lokesh for claiming credit for the Ashok Leyland unit, operational before 2018 near Vijayawada under Chandrababu Naidu’s tenure.

He dismissed Lokesh’s portrayal of it as a 2024 achievement with 600 jobs as “laughable,” urging him to fulfill the free bus travel promise instead.
On the Rs 7 lakh crore claim, Sivashankar highlighted the jump from Rs. 6.5 lakh crore cited in the Governor’s February 25 address, challenging the government to substantiate the additional Rs.50,000 crore in 22 days with specifics.

The YSRCP leader accused the coalition Government of driving industries like JSW to Maharashtra due to harassment, calling the Davos tour a “paid holiday.”
In contrast, he lauded YSRCP govt’s achievements under YS Jagan Mohan Reddy from (2019-24), including industrial corridors in Kopparthi and Orvakal, and production at Century Plywood and YSR EMC Park, despite COVID setbacks.
Reddy questioned the coalition’s transparency and progress compared to YSRCP’s record.
