“Mr. Amit Shah has no moral right to visit North Andhra region as the BJP failed to understand the needs of residual Andhra Pradesh. That is why we have organised Amit Shah Go Back protest,” said Mr. Govinda Rao.
CPIM former district secretary of Srikakulam district Bhaviri Krishna Murthy alleged that Srikakulam became the most backward district in the country due to the lopsided policies of Union and State governments.
