Delhi Assembly Elections 2020: AAP Emerges Front-Runner

The elections to Delhi state assembly scheduled for February 8, will see a three-way fight, with not many surprises on the cards. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), energized by its performance and cohesion in its ranks, is the front runner. In all likelihood, Arvind Kejriwal will power AAP to victory, when results are announced on February 11. The BJP, smarting from the loss of Jharkhand, which came after its failure to form a government in Maharashtra, is trying to put its best foot forward. Meanwhile, the Congress is on an upswing after its victories in assembly elections including Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh towards the end of 2018 and its recent successes in Jharkhand and Maharashtra, where it managed to stay on the winning side.

AAP’s biggest strength is its performance in Delhi and the appeal it has across its voter base in the national capital. However, as much as it tried, it could not expand its base beyond Delhi and has had very little success even in the neighboring states of Haryana and Punjab. AAP is showcasing its report card of 5 years based on its performance. This includes higher budgets for health and education, its water and electricity supply schemes and the work it has done in unauthorized colonies.

The BJP is relying on the charisma of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, but it has had limited success in assembly elections since the end of 2018. It also hopes that its promise of regularisation of unauthorized colonies will pay off. However, it does not have a strong leader on the ground and is counting more on its national stalwarts. Neither Manoj Tiwari nor Vijay Goel enjoy widespread support or have the appeal to lead their party to victory. The Congress, banking on Subhash Chopra’s leadership, is missing Sheila Dixit’s presence at the top in the national capital. The party could end up as an also-ran in this three-horse race.

However, the above mentioned are connected to country’s prospectus, but coming to the Andhra Pradesh, Chandrababu Naidu, who is regarded as the visionary leader has to face the biggest defeat in his life leaving power to the YSRCP headed by YS Jagan Mohan Reddy. However, after Jagan chairing as chief minister, he is making his mark in the administration and introducing welfare schemes.

As far as elections are concerned, this time many young leaders forayed into the politics under their parent’s shadows and tested their fates to step into legislature house. However, not many succeeded as the heirs of leaders who seem to be the legends. Going by the statistics, first to notice is former MP JC Diwakar Reddy’s son Pavan Reddy and nephew Ashrith Reddy who has pinned high expectations could not withstand the YSRCP’s storm. However, leaders like Anil Kumar Yadav, Sucharita, Nandigama Suresh, etc. have become the legislatures under the YSRCP’s roof.

The other young leader Pawan Kalyan who owns a party, also could not win an assembly seat being contested in two constituencies.

‘Mooting three capitals is not a good move,’ Former CS IYR Krishna Rao

Mooting three capitals is not a good move

The former chief secretary of Andhra Pradesh and BJP leader IYR Krishna Rao has said that Chief Minister YS Jagan is going with a perfect plan concerning capital. Krishna Rao expressed his views on the remarks of the three capitals raised by Jagan. He added that the infrastructure needed for the capital could be built at the cost of less than a thousand crores on a global scale in Visakhapatnam.

The executive capital Visakhapatnam will be put in line with Legislature Capital in Amravati. He said the argument for setting up a High Court in Kurnool is a long wish of the people. However, he said that the three capitals are not fair; a wide range of research is needed for this. He said that Vizag has the potential to develop like Hyderabad.

Yet he pointed out that the need for legislature and executive body at a single place. The former CS opined that there is no need for collecting thousands of acres in Amravati. “Investing crores of rupees in Amravati would be a waste of money as it takes a hundred years to make Amaravati as a city,” IYR Krishna Rao concluded.

YSRCP MP Vijayasai Reddy appeals central govt to undertake the construction of Ramayapatnam Port

YSRCP member Vijayasai Reddy appealed to the center to start works on construction in Ramayapatnam port. He raised this issue at the Rajya Sabha Zero Hour on Monday. As per the Andhra Pradesh Reorganization Act, the central government should provide financial assistance to the state to build a major port in Dugarajapat.

However, Vijayasai Reddy said the central government had in principle agreed to build Ramayapatnam in Prakasam district as an alternative. He added that the Ramayapatnam Port is recognized as an ideal destination for international shipping. He also brought to the notice of the Government of Ramayapatnam the necessity of the port of Ramayapatnam during the recent BIMSTEC International Conference on the construction of ports in the borders of the Bay of Bengal.

The conference also discussed the impact of the Ramayapatnam port on commercial transactions between BIMSTEC countries. The port is to be taken over by the state government with central government funding. He said that instead of getting permission to build a major port from the central government, the previous government has decided to build on its own. But today’s Andhra Pradesh government is very clear on this. He said that if the central government grants the necessary funds for the construction of a non-major port in Ramayapatnam, the state government will undertake the construction of the port and fulfill it promptly.

He said that it was their government’s intention to do justice to the people of the state. The state government has already identified three thousand acres of land in Ramayapatnam for the construction of a major port.
