Telugu Desam Party president and former Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu seems to have more faith in the technology than on ground realities.
During his regime, he used to depend only on the figures being churned out by the officials that would appear on the dashboard of his computer, rather than the field reports.
He relied only on the statistics and believed that all his government schemes were reaching to the people. But since the ground realities were different and that clearly reflected in the people’s anger and he was defeated by a huge margin.
Yet, the TDP chief hasn’t learnt a lesson and is of the view that his successor Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy was not going by the figures on the dashboard.
On Friday, Naidu termed the state government’s official Covid-19 health bulletins as ‘bogus and full of wrong claims’ because, the Jagan government has premeditated plan to give false reports to the Central government.
The TDP chief said even the Chief Minister’s dash board was not giving proper reliable data on virus situation which is evident from how its figures are different from those of the health secretary.
Naidu accused the Jagan government of releasing false reports on virus transmission which has created confusion among the people. The total concentration of YSRCP leaders was on getting lockdown lifted and getting local body elections held as early as possible but not on saving lives of people.
“The government has no right to play with the rights of the people. Ignorance of the CM is pushing the state into a serious health crisis,” he said.
Naidu warned of a great disaster if the government continued to hide facts on Corona cases.
