Speaking on the occasion, Vijayasai Reddy described V Ashok Babu as a gentlemen, urged the people of Vemuru Assembly constituency to give their mandate to him and assured that like before the YSRC leader will strive for the development and welfare of the constituency. He recalled that during his previous visit, he has spent his MPLADs for drainage and roads in Chundur. He cautioned people of Vemuru Assembly constituency to be wary of forces that are trying create a rift between different castes.
“The YSRC belongs to people of all sections and communities and it does not neglect any of them.

One must not forget that the YSRC has not supported Triple Talaq bill and similarly opposed the bills which were against secular spirit. Unlike the TDP, the YSRC is not hankering for an alliance with the BJP,” he said.
