Facing a huge backlash on social media and by the Opposition parities, the YS Jagan Mohan Reddy government has withdrawn an order which effectively renamed a scheme in Andhra Pradesh after the chief minister’s father and former CM YS Rajasekhara Reddy.
A government order issued by the School Education Department had renamed an award scheme called “Dr APJ Abdul Kalam Pratibha Puraskar Awards” to “YSR. Vidya Puraskars.”
