YS Jagan asked the coordinators to take the party’s political and governance narrative directly to the people. He added that leaders should explain the differences between the previous YSRCP government and the present administration and highlight the difficulties and losses that, according to the party, people have faced during the two-and-a-half years of Chandrababu Naidu’s rule.

He also urged party leaders to go to every household and explain the welfare and governance initiatives implemented during the YSRCP government, while also raising the issues on which the present government had failed to deliver.

YS Jagan cautioned the party to be fully prepared for challenges during the local-body elections. He maintained that Chandrababu Naidu would try to use police power and other means to influence the electoral process and asked party leaders to prepare suitable alternatives and contingency plans at every level.

The Regional Coordinators were instructed to closely supervise local units, resolve internal issues through consultations, strengthen booth- and grassroots-level leadership and ensure that the organisation remains united throughout the election process.

Senior party leaders and Regional Coordinators Botsa Satyanarayana, Peddireddy Ramachandra Reddy, YV Subba Reddy, Ayodhya Rami Reddy, PV Midhun Reddy, Kurasala Kannababu, Gudivada Amarnath and Budi Mutyala Naidu participated in the meeting. (ANI)
