Telugu Desam Party has registered its worst-ever defeat in the recent elections. The more the supporters introspect the more the issues are surfacing which contributed to the party failure. Here is one such example is the illegal sand mining allegations on some TDP MLAs. This is one of the factors contributing to TDP downfall.
But a statement by the government in the Parliament paints a different picture. Illegal Sand Mining cases are highest in BJP ruled states like Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh. The instances and cases of illegal sand mining went on decreasing year on year in Andhra Pradesh.
During the same time, such cases in Telangana increased every year since 2016-17. Also, there are no FIRs or Court Cases in Telangana in relation to this issue while cases were registered in Andhra Pradesh and some were convicted as well.
The supporters feel that the party has failed to rebut the allegations of Illegal Sand Mining effectively and that has tainted the image of the party contributing to its historical defeat. But to be frank now everything is over and this is just like crying over spilled milk
