Popular Singer Mangli’s fuss continues in the Telugu Desam Party. The TDP cadre does not like the fact that Mangli, who supported former Chief Minister YS Jaganmohan Reddy, is now being given prominence by the TDP leaders. Particularly they are directly questioning Union Minister Rammohan Naidu as a target.
The TDP cadre are continuing posting very harsh and critical comments on social media platforms against the Union Minister in this regard. Mangli has supported former CM Jaganmohan Reddy during the last elections. She sang songs in support of YSRCP and also campaigned for that party.
She campaigned stating that if people vote for the fan symbol, their future will be cool. The Jagan government had appointed Mangli as an advisor to the SVBC channel run by TTD. The party leaders asked Mangli to sing TDP songs during the elections. But, Mangli revealed that she withdrew the proposal because she did not want to mention Chandrababu Naidu’s name.
However, now, Union Minister Rammohan Naidu’s protocol darshan of Mangli on the occasion of Rathasaptami at the Arasavalli temple has caused controversy. Union Minister Rammohan Naidu took photos with Mangli in the temple on the occasion of Ratha Saptami. Those photos went viral on social media.
The TDP cadre has taken the Union Minister to task for taking her along with him for darshan. They have questioned why Mangli, who is a YSRCP supporter and does not like to pronounce Chandrababu’s name, is being given so much priority.
At the same time, the party cadre is questioning another controversial decision taken by Rammohan Naidu in the past. The party cadre is also not happy with the fact that Rammohan Naidu appointed the then Srikakulam Collector Srikesh Balaji as his personal secretary, who faced criticism for harassing the TDP cadre.
With this decision, now the TDP cadre is getting serious about giving special priority to Mangli. They are protesting how they can give priority to those who have troubled them and opposed them instead of those who have worked for the party.
The TDP cadre is asking the party leadership to intervene in this matter. Meanwhile, Rammohan Naidu and Mangli have not officially responded to this controversy so far.
