AMARAVATI: Former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister and YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) President YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has accused the Telugu Desam Party-led coalition government in the state of trying to silence the Opposition.

He alleged on Thursday that the state government was deliberately denying YSRCP recognition as the principal opposition to prevent its voice from being heard.

Jagan Mohan Reddy interacted with MLAs and MLCs at the central office of the YSRCP and issued clear directions on how members should function during the Assembly and Council sessions.

The former Chief Minister said that though YSR Congress is the only Opposition in the House, adequate time is not being given to the party, forcing them to raise people's issues before the media.
