The YSR Congress party has made large-scale arrangements for the two-day protest to be led by party's honorary president Y S Vijayamma on the fee reimbursement issue in Eluru.
Former minister P Subhash Chandrabose, on Sunday, visited Eluru to review the arrangements for the protest. He was accompanied by the party's central governing member, Y V Subba Reddy.
Talking to media persons later, P Subhash Chandrabose said that former chief minister Y S Rajasekhara Reddy had introduced the fee reimbursement scheme to provide better opportunities of higher education to poor students in AP. He regretted that the present government has been scraping the scheme by pushing the future of lakhs of students into darkness.
Stating that the state government's "attitude" has forced the YSR Congress party on the protest path, he appealed to the people to participate in the dharna in a big way to make it a success. (INN)
