TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu was known for taking out of the box decisions when he was the CM. He broke the trend of labeling the welfare schemes after great personalities and TDP founder NTR. In his last tenure Chandrababu implemented many schemes and most of them add the tag of his name.
The likes of Chandranna Tofa, Chandranna Bheema, Chandranna Baata and a few others were some of them. There happened a debate about this in TDP that Chandrababu is ignoring founder NTR and is trying to build his image in the party. Yet Chandrababu never bothered about the criticism and went ahead with implementing the schemes.
In the last elections, Jagan got a stunning victory and after taking over as CM, Jagan proposed many welfare schemes after his father late YS Rajasekhar Reddy. Not just naming the party of YSR, Jagan also made sure the schemes penetrate more into the people as a sentiment.
YSR Rythu Bharosa, YSR Bheema, YSR Arogya Sri, YSR Vahana Mitra, YSR Sunna Vaddi, YSR Netanna Hastham, YSR Asara, YSR Cheyutha are some of the schemes introduced by Jagan in the last twelve months.
But in the recent times, something might have happened to Jagan as he is following Chandrababu. All of a sudden schemes are being introduced on Jagan’s name. Jagananna Amma Vodi, Jagananna Vidya Deewana, Jagananna Goru Mudda, Jagananna Vidya Kanuka are the latest schemes, the YSRCP government came up with in the last few months.
Looking at these the political observers believe that e Jagan is surpassing Chandrababu in labeling the schemes after his name but not sure of ignoring YSR who still has a place among the poor and farmers.
