Former Congress MP Ponnam Prabhakar on Monday ridiculed the demand for delimitation of Assembly constituencies stating that the Chief Ministers of the two Telugu-speaking states were throwing their lot behind the issue only to accommodate the migrated leaders who had joined their parties under operation ‘Akarsh'. Speaking to the media here, Mr. Prabhakar said that it was pathetic on the part of both Chief Ministers -- N. Chandrababu Naidu and K. Chandrasekhar Rao -- to mount pressure on the Central government on the issue instead of focussing their attention on the welfare of people.
On the demonetisation, he said the decision had not only subjected the people to severe difficulties but also paralysed the economy.
Instead, the two Chief Ministers should focus on the welfare of people.
