Jagan is synonymous with backstabbing politics, alleges TDP MLA Gana Babu
The Telugu Desam Party (TDP) has criticised YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) president Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy and his party leaders for their move to observe 'Vennupotu Dinam' on June 4, marking the completion of one year of the NDA government in Andhra Pradesh. The TDP leaders argued that the NDA government had implemented several key poll promises in a year, including the enhancement of pensions, the Deepam scheme, Mega DSC recruitment drive, and the revival of Anna Canteens. Addressing the media at his camp office on Tuesday, TDP Visakhapatnam (West) MLA P.G.V.R. Naidu, popularly known as Gana Babu, described Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy as arrogant, saying that the former Chief Minister had not learnt any lesson from the people's verdict in the 2024 elections. 'Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy is synonymous with backstabbing politics. He has amassed wealth by betraying the Congress during his tenure as an MP. Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy's name surfaced in the controversial death of his uncle Y.S. Vivekananda Reddy. He betrayed even his mother and sister,' Mr. Gana Babu alleged. Questioning Mr. Jagan's achievements as the Chief Minister, Mr. Gana Babu demanded answers regarding the unfulfilled promises of liquor prohibition in State and the release of a job calendar. TDP Visakhapatnam president Gandi Babjee ridiculed the YSRCP leaders' statements on the NDA government, pointing out that the previous government took five years to increase pensions by ₹1,000 and now 'has the audacity to speak about betrayal'. He alleged that Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy had betrayed the people of Andhra Pradesh in the name of three capitals.

Prez Murmu may open Gorakhpur Ayush varsity on June 30
Lucknow: The state's first Ayush university, coming up in Gorakhpur, is all set for its inauguration on June 30. If all goes as planned, President Droupadi Murmu will conduct the ceremony. She is also expected to attend the convocation ceremony of the first undergraduate (MBBS) batch at Gorakhpur AIIMS. Sharing this on Tuesday, an official spokesperson said, "The Ayush university will be Gorakhpur's fourth university and the first one where both the foundation stone laying and inauguration will be conducted by a President (Ram Nath Kovind on Aug 28, 2021)." Officials said that the university has come up at a cost of Rs 267.5 crore and is spread across over 52 acres in the Pipri, Bhathat area of Gorakhpur district. Stating that the university was one of the dream projects of chief minister Yogi Adityanath , officials said that over 95% of the construction work is complete. "The facility centre, vice chancellor's residence and various staff accommodations are fully ready, while only some finishing touches and final coat painting remain pending in the boys' and girls' hostels. The executing agency has been instructed to complete these within the next 10 days," they said. Mentioning that the Ayush university serves as an integrated regulatory body for Ayush disciplines — Ayurveda, Unani, Homeopathy, Naturopathy, Yoga and Siddha — officials said that all govt and private Ayush colleges in the state are now regulated by this university. "Currently, around 100 Ayush educational institutions (Ayurveda, Homeopathy and Unani) in the state are affiliated with this university," they said. Since the inauguration of the Ayush OPD on Feb 15, 2023, more than 100,000 patients have benefited from consultations. The OPD sees an average of 300 patients daily for Ayurveda, Homeopathy and Unani consultations. Soon, the opening of the Ayush hospital will provide excellent facilities for treatment through Ayurveda, Unani, Yoga and Naturopathy. It is also serving as a core to boost health tourism and medicinal farming, creating employment opportunities. "The state could connect local villagers to various forms of employment. The fully operational university will pave the way for farmers' prosperity and job opportunities for youth by creating an ecosystem for medicinal farming and herb collection," they said, adding that CM Yogi may inspect the Ayush university on his next visit.
