The Praja Rajyam is in turmoil again. Participation of some PR leaders in YSR’s memorial meet on Friday has kicked off a furore in the party.
Sources said the party president, Mr K. Chiranjeevi, is angered by the participation of PR leaders in the memorial service without his permission and the growing ties between some PR leaders and the Congress. Even the open support to Mr Jagan Mohan Reddy as Chief Minister has irked the PR boss.
Besides the Nagi Reddy couple — the former MP, Mr Bhuma Nagi Reddy, and the MLA from Banganapalle, Ms Sobha Nagi Reddy — the MLA, Mr Katsani Ramreddy, too paid homage to YSR at the accident site in Pavaralagutta.
What angered the PR leadership was the Nagi Reddy couple’s open support to Mr Jagan Mohan Reddy and their efforts to mobilise crowds for the meeting.
Though Ms Sobha Nagi Reddy has denied rumours of joining the Congress, her actions speak otherwise. PR sources said the couple may quit the party if Mr Jagan Mohan Reddy is appointed the CM or form another group if the party high command refused the top post to Mr Jagan Mohan Reddy.
“Besides Ms Sobha Nagi Reddy, Mr Katsani Ramreddy, the Nirmal MLA, Mr Maheshwar Reddy, and the Nellore (rural) MLA, Mr Sridhar Krishna Reddy, are causing concern,” a senior PR leader said. He added, “The party has taken a serious view of their behaviour.”
Recently, Mr Maheshwar Reddy, kicked off a row by saying that Mr Jagan Mohan Reddy had managed his business well and would manage the state well too.
