‘Pawan met Naidu for Sankranti package’

PNS|Vijayawada

AP ministers and YSRC leaders have alleged that Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan’s meeting with Telugu Desam chief Chandrababu Naidu was only to cheat the public. They said that both are meeting in Telangana and conspiring against AP and the Chandrababu-Pawan Kalyan combination is nothing new as both have been dating for long.

The veil between Chandrababu Babu and Pawan Kalyan has been lifted leading to speculations about a possible alliance once again ahead of the 2024 elections. Pawan Kalyan paid a visit to the residence of Chandrababu Naidu in Hyderabad on Sunday for a short meeting that lasted more than one hour.

Minister for Irrigation Ambati Rambabu responded to their meeting, in his inimitable style. Ambati said that the Jana Sena Party should be merged with TDP. “Even if Chandrababu and Pawan get together, there is no loss for the YSRC party. Pawan is just working for Chandrababu as he has no moral values. YSRC will win 175 out of 175 seats in the next 2024 elections, ” Ambati claimed.

Minister for Housing Jogi Ramesh flayed Pawan Kalyan and alleged that he went to Chandrababu’s house only for the Sankranti package. The adopted son went to his adopted father’s house for a package, instead of condoning the death of innocent lives in Kandukur and Guntur, the Minister expressed anger. Pawan Kalyan is not ashamed to visit Chandrababu’s house. Even if Chandrababu and Pawan form an alliance, they cannot do anything to Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, the minister asserted.

Vijayawada MLA Malladi Vishnu recalled that in 2014 BJP, TDP, and Jana Sena together destroyed the state. “Pawan became the adopted son because he acts as per Chandrababu’s whims and fancies. Now Pawan Kalyan should tell who has to be hit with slippers. It is clear that the veil has been lifted after their meeting. Why should you leave Andhra Pradesh and sit in the neighboring state to discuss GO No-1,” he asked. Pawan went to Chandrababu’s house because he had surrendered to the package offered by the TDP chief. Either way AP has nothing to lose with their meeting, he stated while dismissing the meeting.

Industries Minister Gudiwada Amarnath in his tweet said that Pawan Kalyan went to Chandrababu’s house only for Sankranthi gifts. It is a known fact that you are ready to support Chandrababu in all ways. The people in the State are watching you people closely and are ready to teach you both a lesson,” he tweeted.
