Hyderabad: CPI National Secretary Dr. K. Narayana today demanded the Andhra Pradesh state government to immediately close LG polymers, which was responsible for the deaths of 12 people at Vizag. He also demanded the state government to order for a judicial inquiry in the whole issue besides providing an adequate amount of security to the local people and workers of the company.
In a statement, Narayana said that the state government appeared to be giving priority to the industrialists of the state than its people. Targeting the chief minister of the state YS Jaganmohan Reddy, He alleged that the company was allowed to function during the ongoing lockdown to supply bottles to distilleries owned by the CM himself. He also expressed his surprise over the decision of the CM to talk to the representatives of the company first instead of visiting the family members of dead or victims, who were undergoing treatment at the hospital.
He made it clear that the LG polymers had committed a dreaded crime by causing the deaths of so many innocent people and demanded the state government to book a murder case against the company under section 302 of IPC to immediately arrest the representatives of the company.
