One of the prime reasons for the TDP's defeat in 2019's general polls was that the employees cast their votes against the TDP. Since the employees developed extreme positivity at Jagan Reddy in 2019 and were vexed with the anti-employee stand of the TDP government, they opted for Jagan Reddy in 2019. It must also be recalled that employees stood as the instrumental factor in TDP's defeat in 1999's general polls as well.
Chandrababu Naidu is currently on a mission to get benefitted from the employees' strike. He delivered a series of statements in favour of the employees agitation apart from letting the yellow media houses show how friendly and supportive he was towards the employees.
However, Janasena chief Power Star Pawan Kalyan entered the picture at the right time. Admitting that hadn't involved in the employees protest as they sought no political party's involvement, Pawan Kalyan expressed his anguish on the government's stand on the employees.
"I'm the son of a government employee and I'm aware of the financial woes of the employees. Every employee seeks a hike in their pay with the PRC. In AP, however, ministers' properties tripled while the employees salaries were reduced to 30% with the new PRC. Before attaining power, the CM promised that he would ban CPS in just a week after assuming power. But then, he forgot his promise. This is cheating. Earlier, the government held discussions with the employees too many times thus humiliating them. The discussions should be held on in a productive way," Pawan Kalyan said in a video byte.
