Srikakulam: Second-rung leaders of the YSRCP are not happy in all five Assembly constituencies in the district as the party president and the Chief Minister (CM) YS Jagan Mohan Reddy wished to continue sitting MLAs. Mandal and the constituency level leaders in all the five Assembly constituencies of Palasa, Narasannapeta, Etcherla, Amadalavalasa and Pathapatnam have been raising their voice against sitting MLAs and issued an ultimatum to the party president and Chief Minister to change the sitting MLAs. But the leaders of dissident and rebel groups are disappointed with the decision of the party president continuing the sitting MLAs for the upcoming elections.
