The parties that have come to power at the Centre and in the states mainly because of the votes of the poor have forgotten them and were favouring the land mafia, Communist Party of India (Marxist) central committee member P. Madhu alleged here on Tuesday. Flagging off a bicycle rally taken out from Kaleswara Rao market centre to publicise the party's national meeting to be held in the city from August 7, Mr. Madhu said that the Central and State governments had become mere puppets in the hands of the ‘mining mafia'. Several mining scams were brought to light recently and the important among them was the one in which son-in-law of former Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy allegedly occupied lakhs of acres of land for mining purpose.
As this was confirmed by none other than Chief Minister K. Rosaiah, “what stronger evidence is needed?” Mr. Madhu asked.
He alleged that the leaders in the State were too busy making money and had totally forgotten the needs of the people.
Hundreds of party activists and sympathisers participated in the rally that passed below One Town low bridge and reached Durgapuram, touching Police Control Room, Krishnalanka police station, Satyam hotel, Krishnalanka feeder road, Nallagate centre, Ranigarithota, Labbipet and Nimmathota centre.
Political solution
Mr. Madhu said all the problems the people were facing and an alternative political solution would be discussed at the party's national conference.
Over 400 delegates from all over the country will come to the city to attend the conference.
Senior leaders of the party and chief ministers of West Bengal, Kerala and Tripura would attend a public meeting that would be held at Swaraj Maidan on August 10, he said.
