Jagan said though the benefits were provided to crores of the poor including auto drivers- Vahana Mitra, weavers- NetannaNestam, Matsyakara Bharosa, petty vendors, tailors, Nayi BrahminsChedodu scheme, it was shocking to see that they did not support him. The YSRCP had treated the manifesto as bible but failed to get votes,” he added.
