At a meeting held in Vijayawada on June 20 in which CPM and CPI national leaders BV Raghavulu and D Raja and other leaders from like-minded parties have participated and took stock of the present political scenario in the state.
As part of that, the party would organise several conventions across the state starting from Visakhapatnam on July 8 which would focus on labour issues. These conventions would continue till October at all places. A bus yatra would also be taken up by the party across the state. He found fault with all political parties in the state criticising that they have shelved the issue of special category status to AP and fully immersed in election politics.
