Slamming the comments aired by Sakshi Tv news channel against the party High Command, Pradesh Congress Committee spokesperson Paladugu Venkata Rao on Sunday asked those who have no confidence on the leadership of Congress president Sonia Gandhi and party ideology can leave the party immediately.
Talking to media persons at Gandhi Bhavan, Mr Venkata Rao stated that the news channel should have acted in a responsible manner before airing such programmes, which damage the image of the party and Congress president Sonia Gandhi and AICC general secretary Rahul Ganghi.
“I have a great respect and confidence on freedom of expression. But, in the name journalism, if the channel carries false propaganda and fake reports damaging the image of party, the party is bound to take action on those who resort to yellow journalism,” he warned out.
“If Kadapa MP Y S Jaganmohan Reddy is not interested to follow or obey the party principles and ideology, he can leave the party voluntarily,” he stated.
