Reiterating that Congress and TDP are working in tandem, YSR Congress has said that two parties have been speaking with the same accent and directing the ire at YSR and his family members to gain cheap and narrow political mileage.
“Though the state Congress meet folded up as a vain bid to show unity among the leaders, they could only hurl abuses against YSR, his family members and the media house of YS Jagan Mohan Reddy. N Chandrababu Naidu too repeated the same script though on a different platform,” party spokesperson Gattu Ramachandra Rao told reporters here on Thursday.
Taking serious objection to the uncalled for remarks of Finance Minister Anam Ramanaryana Reddy, who went overboard in criticising YSR, who guided the party to a second term victory in 2009 and YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, he said, “the minister has been known for his unethical change of stand to suit the situation.”
Anam was at the beck and call of YSR when he was Chief Minister and adored YS Jagan Mohan Reddy when the talk was that he would be the next leader. Now he seems to be totally surrendered to whoever is in power and has been criticizing the very same people from whom he received favours.
This shows the character of the person and it is a family trait for the Anam brothers to be on the wrong side of the ethics, always, he said.
After the efforts of Chief Minister and the PCC President to sweep their differences under the carpet went in vain, they shifted their speech from political arena to other fields and have targeted the media house owned by YS Jagan Mohan Reddy.
Jagan’s media house has broken the monopoly of the other major player which has been the mouth piece of TDP and N Chandrababu Naidu. The Congress was taken to task by the other media house, while it was the sole lead player and now the Party instead of taking on main opposition TDP and his supportive media houses it has been passing harsh comments on Jagan’s media.
As if by a clue, Chandrababu Naidu also echoes the same feelings which show that Congress and TDP are not two different entities but are one.
The vested interests do not want a second voice in the media and the Congress and TDP do not want a third Party to emerge in the state. This has a clear reflection in the conduct of the two parties and their respective leaders, he said.
However, people will give their verdict at the hustings, in the same manner and the differences within in Congress are in the open even at the state-level meeting. The perfect understanding Congress and TDP have in the state polity have again come to full play, he said.
