Amaravati: June 21: It is quite interesting that thousands of voluntary social media activists of the TDP started countering the government’s decisions when those were against the party’s point of view. The government decision in IAS officer postings is now a point of discussion in the TDP’s social media which contains nearly 50,000 voluntary activists. It is contrary to the social media wing of the YSR Congress that is being maintained by the party with the major share of hired employees.
Now the TDP social media started criticising the government’s decision for the postings of IAS officers. The social media platforms of the TDP including many YouTubers and web channels strongly opposed the government decision, particularly IAS officer postings. All these social media platforms worked voluntarily as back-end forces in the landslide victory of TDP.
The social media is questioning the posing of IAS officers like Gopalakrishna Dwivedi, Praveen Kumar, Pradyumna, Siddharth Jain, and others. The social media platforms explained how the officers worked against the TDP.
The sympathisers of the TDP have raised doubts about how the same officers would work to deliver good governance. Is there any guarantee they would not continue their bonding with the YSR Congress leadership secretly, asked one TDP senior leader. He said the second-rung leaders of the TDP faced several problems during the last five years.
Now they are discussing all the issues threadbare hence the TDP social media platforms started criticising the transfer issues. The YSR Congress social media platform never criticised the government decisions during the last five years of the regime. But the TDP cadre and sympathisers seem to be taking an Opposition role.
The new trend would help the government to give good governance, said senior journalist M Shyam Sundar. He further said usually Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu is always focused on good governance and administration. So he can set up a good team for it, he explained.
However, the social media also blamed former Chief Secretary Tucker and former DGP Tagore for suggesting the names for the higher official postings. The two officers are natives of other States then they do not have the knowledge of round realities properly, the analyst Kishore said.
Apart from this the newly elected DGP also did not respond anything on behalf of AB Venkateswara Rao who retired recently, pointed out Ch Padma of America. She said that the police officers association should have taken up the issue of AB Venkateswara Rao who was harassed by the then government.
