The ruling governments across all democratic nations have given the PAC chairman post to the opposition party. He underlined that the YSRC decided to boycott the PAC chairman elections after the government decided to hold voting for the post. The opposition leader pointed out that when YSRC formed the government in 2019 with a huge mandate, winning 151 MLAs, their government made Payyavula Keshav of TD as the PAC chairman.He underscored the importance of having an opposition leader as the PAC chairman to ensure accountability and transparency.Leader of opposition in council Botsa Satyanarayana has also criticised the ruling TD-led NDA government for acting against the constitutional spirit regarding the PAC chairman’s post.
