UPA victory âimmoralâ: CPI</b>
Staff Reporter
KARIMNAGAR: CPI floor leader in the Assembly Chada Venkat Reddy has termed the UPA governmentâs victory in the vote of confidence âunethical and immoralâ.
Terming the trust vote victory as a âblack dayâ in Indian democracy, he said democracy was put at stake by the Congress by luring MPs with money and betraying the confidence of people. Talking to newsmen here on Wednesday, he stressed the need for revamp of political parties to protect democracy.
Agitation
Expressing concern over the defection of MPs of major political parties including the TDP, he said the Left parties alone were stable and there was no cross voting by their MPs in Parliament.
He said the CPI would chalk out agitational programmes against the nuclear deal, price rise and other anti-people policies of the Centre at the partyâs State executive committee, which would be held in Warangal on August 1.
He said that they would launch âpraja chaitanya yatrasâ against the nuclear deal and educate people about the dubious tactics of the Congress government.
Natya Mandali meet
The seventh Andhra Pradesh Praja Natya Mandali State convention would be held in Karimnagar town from July 25 to 27 at Kalabharathi and Revenue gardens. Mr. Reddy said the Praja Natya Mandali State convention was being held for the first time in Karimnagar district. CPI district secretary M. Venkat Swamy was also present.
