Pawan Kalyan Vows to Provide Golden Future to AP If Elected to Power

Vijayawada: Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan has vowed to provide a golden future to Andhra Pradesh if his party is elected to power in the coming polls.

Interacting with farmers, weavers and artists at Chebrole in the course of his AP tour on Thursday, he called upon the people to trust honest people like him and give him a chance to be in power so that he could develop the state faster. He vowed to develop Uppada as a skill city and set up a marketing yard for silk at Chebrole, if he won the polls.

Earlier, the actor promised to come up with a policy to help women have financial self-sustenance and provide them protection once his party gains power. He spoke so during an interaction with the women to know about their problems, at Gollaprolu, in the Pithapuram assembly segment of Kakinada district.

He laid stress on the strength of women, calling them as Veera Mahilalu.

Maintaining that Jana Sena belonged to middle class people and the ordinary youth and women were the party’s main assets, he said he would provide protection to women once the JS party assumed power

Earlier, a Dalit woman, Surya Kumari, said that when she contested the Rameswaram gram panchayat polls as the Jana Sena nominee for the post of a ward member, she was threatened with dire consequences by the YSR Congress men. However, she said, she won the election with a majority of 45 votes against the YSR Congress nominee.

Several farmers, youths, fishermen, differently abled persons and others met Pawan Kalyan and expressed their woes and submitted representations seeking his intervention to resolve them. Fishermen complained about erosion of the Uppada beach, students complained about ganja use in educational institutions while some villagers complained about lack of a cemetery in the village.

Local resident Gundivilli Poleesu complained about land acquisition for the Yeleru reservoir modernisation works with an assured relief worth Rs 9 lakh per acre, which he said was no relief.

Siva Sankar from Uppada village informed Pawan Kalyan that they were not having a cemetery for Kothapatnam and Subbampeta villages. The depositors of Jayalakshmi Cooperative Bank complained that the bank cheated nearly 20,000 depositors of Rs 480 crore and no action was taken by the government even as 40 depositors lost their lives unable to bear the pressure. They urged Pawan Kalyan to help them get justice.
