missing some real facts
Alleged Illegal Activities
Dr. Y S R, who claims to have come from a middle class gdfamily reported during December 2006 that his family illegally owned 618 acres of land[2] in excess of Land Ceiling Act which existed for more than 30 years. He claimed he did not know he was over the limit. The opposition parties asked for his resignation for this violation of the law[3].
one more unresolved issue is that from the day he is sworn as CM he started minting money the clear evidence is the sudden announcement of a cement factory worth about 3000crores being started by in two years of his fathers rule that too with out any public offer whole and sole owned by the crook himself and a congress MLA from Karnataka, what sort of business in this world gives them 300 crores in two years period to invest and start new company ? its open cheating of the public and their funds.
Mr.YSR is very well know for changing names doesn't matter even if the construction or the structure or the scheme is present since years he changes name to Rajiv scheme and Indira scheme. now even government employees in state government are so confused with names of the schemes and structures that every second one has either Indira or Rajiv, He definitely is saving his ass if not then how come he never kept his daughter or son in their names ? ok i agree if they were born earlier why not he names his grandchildren is the question being running around peoples heads since many years. Who has the answer ?
Does Dr.YSR has any answer for such question1?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sanjay.stocks (talk • contribs) 19:21, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

message: It's been highly popularised. Shouldn't we include it ?
That was a cowardly act by a man in such position shame on his way of thinking and his behaviour, he behaved like a coward no doubt about it he failed to face the truth and misused the power of cheif Minister. 
Shame to congress to have such a coward as their leader.
That day when he passed orders to cut down trees and destroy existing road laid by Ramoji Rao it showed the arrogance and cunningness as well as cowardness of Dr YSR. Is there any government which has destroyed a public road ? Doesn't matter who laid it, atlest he should have common sence that its been used by the public for their transport.
india is struggling hard to develop when compared to other developed nations and  in such situations how come one drags the development backwards just for his selfish reasons?
Its definately shameful to have such leaders, if he is given chance he would exceed hitler even in cruelty, greediness and jelousy.
What Public road are you talking about it was a road in land "occupied" by Ramoji Film city. Stop Supporting a land grabber just because he looks old and like a gentleman grow up  —Preceding unsigned comment added by HydGuy (talk • contribs) 21:13, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Since the sudden demise of their beloved leader Dr YSR, shell-shocked, 30 people died in different parts of Andhra Pradesh on Thursday. In East Godavari, nine people died, while former minister Jakkampudi Ramamohan Rao fainted on hearing the news. Seven died of heart attack and shock, while two hanged themselves unable to bear the grief.

thread_title:  Death 

message: "Dr YSR was also accused by Hindu religious bodies and nationalist groups of promoting Christian agenda and pushing Christian evangelism[citation needed]. His son-in-law is a Pastor. Dr YSR got his Christian step brother to become the Managing Trustee of the TTD (Tirupathi Tirumala Devasthanam) board, where after the devotees donations received by the temples were channeled to Mosques and Churches[citation needed].
Dr YSR got auctioned land/estates belonging to a number of temples.
Dr YSR started providing Rs. 20, 000 per person subsidy for Christians visiting Jerusalem and Bethlehem. He launched a 5% reservation for Muslims - against the provisions of Indian Constitution. He also promoted reservation for Dalit Christians, a cause espoused by Mrs. Sonia Gandhi as well - as a backdoor means to opening floodgates of Christian conversion."
:I don't know who has written this, but please provide proper citations to it. I am deleting this for now until someone gives proper citations. YSR has only recently died and of course loads of people will be visiting Wikipedia and seeing this article, and of course none of us wants to give incorrect info.
