Lok Satta welcomes President's rule

Lok Satta Party national President Dr. Jayaprakash Narayan said there is no alternative to President’s rule in the murky circumstances prevailing in Andhra Pradesh.

In a media statement, Dr. JP pointed out that the Government has ceased to exist in the State for the last two years with Ministers squabbling among themselves forgetting their collective responsibility and the Legislature becoming dysfunctional for the last four years.

The Central leadership, which has derailed the economy and is steeped in corruption, has succeeded merely in destabilizing Andhra Pradesh.

Dr. JP hoped that amity and good will be restored between people of the two States – Telangana and Andhra Pradesh at least under President’s rule. Steps should be taken to restore governance, ensure a bright future for the people of the two States, and help them get over the nightmare they have gone through.
