Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) president Y.S. Sharmila has slammed the Centre for “making meagre allocations for Andhra Pradesh within the Union Price range”.
Taking to the social media platform X, she alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s price range was discriminatory. “The price range is ‘full’ for Bihar, and ‘Nill’ for Andhra Pradesh,” she mentioned.

The State Congress chief questioned why Nitish Kumar’s Bihar, with 12 MPs within the NDA alliance on the Centre, obtained a grand share within the price range, whereas Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, who performed an even bigger function with 21 MPs on the Centre, had been “handed out scraps by Mr. Modi.”
She mentioned Mr. Modi had as soon as once more let down the individuals of Andhra Pradesh. The price range didn’t have any point out of the Particular Class Standing (SCS). Apart from the mortgage accepted for the Amaravati capital earlier, no new monetary allocation had been made, the funds given for implementation of Polavaram mission was lower than what was anticipated, and no funds have been allotted for growth of backward areas within the State.
She mentioned it was ridiculous on the a part of the Chief Minister to name it a progressive price range.
