Former minister Perni Nani accused Chandrababu, BJP, and Pawan Kalyan of exploiting politics to seek vengeance against the poor. He expressed frustration at being denied pension benefits, alleging that the Citizen for Democracy, affiliated with TDP and BJP, obstructed the process. Nani criticized Nimmagadda Ramesh for purportedly holding clandestine meetings with Kamineni Srinivas and Sujana Chowdary.
He labeled Citizen for Democracy as politically motivated, with Kapil Sibal representing them in court. Nani claimed the organization blackmailed election staff and accused Nara Chandrababu’s wife, Bhuvaneswari, of violating electoral code by distributing cheques. He questioned the EC’s inaction and perceived bias against YSRCP, citing the unchecked political activities of Chandrababu, Pawan Kalyan, and Purandeswari.
