YSR Cong will sweep next by-elections: Nallapu

Nallapu Reddy Prasanna Kumar Reddy, who won the by-elections by contesting on Ysr Congress Party ticket from Kovvur Assembly constituency with 23,496 votes, on Wednesday expressed confidence that his party would win in the ensuing by-elections for 17 Assembly constituencies under the stewardship of Jagan Mohan Reddy with thumping majority.

Talking to media persons after the declaration of election results, Prasanna Kumar Reddy said that the by-election result in the constituency was a slap on the face of both ruling Congress and opposition Telugu Desam Party.  He thanked the people of constituency for reposing their confidence on him and supporting the leadership of Jagan Mohan Reddy.

Despite the ruling and opposition parties indulging in distribution of money to lure voters in the constituency, the people have rejected them and taught a fitting lesson by reposing faith on former chief minister YSR, he said. People who got benefited under YSR schemes, have once again gave a clear verdict that they want his regime back, he said.
