Congress government got a loophole to crush TDP in Andhra Pradesh. Vishakapatnam area is the home for several tribal sets in India. The agency areas near Vizag is the main home for these tribal. They earn their living by selling the products they get from the forest. Honey, medicinal plants, rubber and few more products are developed by these tribal.
Interestingly, these areas are rich in bauxite ore. Few years back, Congress government decided to give these lands for lease to get more revenue. At that time, TDP stopped Congress party to go ahead in this aspect. They mentioned the livelihood of the tribal as the main reason to stop this agreement. Now, TDP government is facing drought of finance in the treasury.
To fill it up, TDP is now planning to give these forest areas for lease. If this happens, tribal people will lose their livelihood. Now, Congress got a chance to support these tribal and oppose TDP in this aspect. Finally, Congress got a loophole to capture the hearts of tribal in Vizag area.
