Mudragada criticizes Pawan Kalyan: "How can you ask me to join you when you're with my arch-enemy?"

Amaravati: Kapu leader and YSRCP politician Mudragada Padmanabham has once again criticized Jana Sena party leader Pawan Kalyan. He accused Pawan Kalyan of engaging in shadow politics and using movie character artists to insult him. Mudragada challenged Pawan Kalyan to hold a press meet and speak directly about him if he dared. This was stated during a Kapu community gathering held today in Tadepalligudem, where Mudragada made these remarks.

Mudragada questioned why some are suggesting he should support Pawan Kalyan, asking why he should support Pawan at all. He questioned why Pawan Kalyan failed to confront Chandrababu Naidu for insulting him. He further asked, "How can you ask me to join you when you are going with my arch-enemy Chandrababu?" He noted that Pawan Kalyan's support for Chandrababu Naidu at a time when Chandrababu's popularity was waning helped increase Chandrababu's standing again. Mudragada mentioned that he had suggested aiming for 80 seats and seeking power-sharing.

Mudragada advised Pawan Kalyan not to play with the lives of Kapu youth and remarked that the word 'public service' doesn't even come out of Pawan's mouth. He praised Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy for implementing numerous welfare schemes and stated that there is no other chief minister in the country like Jagan. He confidently said that Jagan Mohan Reddy becoming the Chief Minister again is certain.
