"On behalf of the CPI party, we are requesting the Chief Minister Jaganmohan government to allot the TIDCO houses to the beneficiaries. Because for the last two to three years they are waiting for their houses. But his government is neglecting the TIDCO houses," said CPI state secretary L Ramakrishna.

"After 18 months of their rule, they are not even investing a single rupee on the TICO issues. This is very unfortunate, they are not providing the electricity, water or drainage system," he added.
