They criticised the Central government for snooping on the various political leaders, civil liberties activists, journalists, and even judges with Pegasus software.
Meanwhile, the Andhra Pradesh Urban Citizens Federation expressed solidarity with the Samyukta Kisan Morcha-sponsored Bharat Bandh and gave a call to people to participate in it.
The state convener of APUCF, Cherukuri Babu Rao, said that the proposed Bharat Bandh was justified as it was against the amendment to the Central Electricity Act and the labour code which would take away the rights of the labour.
He said that the Central government in the name of farm laws is trying to hand over the agriculture to the corporate houses.
He appealed to the various citizen organisations, residential colonies, apartment associations, to express solidarity to the farmers' agitation and against the anti-people policies of the Central government.
