Congress is in the cocoon of confusion and cracks seems to have been developed in the cabinet on one side while there is a stream of influx into YSR Congress from other parties in support of YS Jagan Mohan Reddy who has been targeted by the conspirators, the party has said.
“The cabinet which never met to address the people’s problems has been constantly going into a huddle while leaders of various political parties are expressing solidarity with YS Jagan Mohan Reddy who is being questioned for the second day by CBI,” the party spokesperson Roja told reporters here on Saturday.
Brushing aside the comments that the then ministers who signed the 26 GOs have done it under duress and on the orders of YSR, she questioned as to why they did not protest nor mention it even three years after of the death of YSR.
“Are the ministers also signing GOs under duress even now including the resignation letter signed by Mopidevi Venkataramana before his arrest,” she asked.
As the Congress is attributing the success of the party in the state to Sonia Gandhi and many leaders are of the opinion that they won because of the Congress President, why take the name of YSR and blame him. The state government not responding to the Supreme Court notice on 26 GOs was a strategic move at that time to target YS Jagan Mohan Reddy and when it backfired, they are trying to blame YSR, she said.
Reiterating that any cabinet decision is a collective decision, she said, all Congress ministers should speak out of the veracity of the GOs.
No one can stop the influx with senior leaders like Dr MV Mysoora Reddy joining the party and people like Sabbam Hari, Allani Nani expressing solidarity, YSRC is poised for a major win the June 12 by-polls.
Meanwhile, Bobbili MLA, Sujana Venkata Ranga Rao called on the Party Honourary President, YS Vijayamma and expressed full support to the family.
Jagan Mohan Reddy has been cooperating with CBI and the question of arrest does not arise, said the party MLC, Jupudi Prabhakar Rao, who went with Jagan to Dilkusha guest house.
He appealed to the anxious cadre not to panic and maintain calm and peace. The party cadre was being stopped at various places and many of them were being harassed by police, he said.
