Tax Payers Association president Sambi Reddy on Sunday supported the bandh call given by the opposition parties demanding SCS to Andhra Pradesh. In a release, he said though the BJP included the issue in its election manifesto, it backtracked when it came to implementation. “It is sad that the Chief Minister is belittling the bandh call give by the opposition parties,,” Mr. Sambi Reddy said. “Had TDP been serious, it would have endorsed the Bill introduced by K.V.P. Ramachandra Rao,” he said.
