Strongly responding to the recent open letter written by Kapu movement leader and former minister Mudragada Padmanabham to Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu, TDP senior leader and former MLC Buddha Venkanna advised him to stop writing such crazy letters even now.
He reminded him that Chandrababu Naidu promised people ‘Super Six’ not to gain power, but for the welfare of the people.
He also recalled that soon after becoming Chief Minister, Chandrababu increased Rs 3,000 pension to Rs 4,000 at once. But, he said that Jaganmohan Reddy after promising to increase pension from Rs 2,000 to Rs 3,000 increased in phases.
When Jaganmohan Reddy increased pensions in installments, he wondered and asked Mudragada why he was silent at that time without writing any letter to the then Chief Minister? He asked the Kapu leader whether he did not see the government giving free gas cylinders as a Diwali gift.
Referring that Chandrababu Naidu has personally given in Srikakulam district and Pawan Kalyan givenin West Godavari district, he showered questions on Mudragada, asking him how he missed to see them? If he hadn’t seen them, he suggested he watch it again on YouTube.
Buddha Venkanna ridiculing the selfish attitude of Mudragada, who always says `my race.. my people’, but unable to see Pawan Kalyan reaching to such a high-level and making meaningless comments against the government.
Strongly objecting for raising Visakha Steel plant issue in his open letter to the Chief Minister asking him and deputy chief minister to write letters on the plant, Venkanna advised him not to complicate the sensitive issue at a time when the coalition government is working hard with the central government for the protection of the Plant and also protect interests of the state. Such hasty and shortsighted comments by a senior leader will only mislead people, he alleged.
However, Venkanna lamented that it is habit of Mudragada to create conflicts between castes. He wondered that he wrote such a letter with a conspiracy to create a gap between the workers and the alliance government?
He also expressed doubt as to why he did not speak about Visakha Steel during the Jaganmohan Reddy government? He also expressed doubt as to why you did not support those who went there that day and were on a hunger strike for Visakha Steel?
