Chinarajappa, Ramanujaya allege Mudragada speaking for Jagan
Deputy Chief Minister N Chinarajappa and the Kapu Corporation chairman Ch Ramanujaya here on Tuesday alleged that former Minister and Kapu leader Mudragada Padmanabham was speaking for Opposition leader Y S Jaganmohan Reddy. Speaking to mediapersons, Ramanujaya wanted to know what justice Mudragada had done to the Kapus, when he was a Minister.
​Vijayawada: Deputy Chief Minister N Chinarajappa and the Kapu Corporation chairman Ch Ramanujaya here on Tuesday alleged that former Minister and Kapu leader Mudragada Padmanabham was speaking for Opposition leader Y S Jaganmohan Reddy. Speaking to mediapersons, Ramanujaya wanted to know what justice Mudragada had done to the Kapus, when he was a Minister.
He said that Mudragada’s statements against Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu were dictated by Jaganmohan Reddy. Alleging that the Kapu leader was dancing to the tunes of the YSR Congress, he feared that Mudragada’s statements would cause damage to the Kapu community.
He said the Kapu leaders in the TDP and those in the government were working cautiously to extend all the benefits to the Kapus. He said that Kapus would get justice only under the leadership of Chandrababu Naidu who had created Kapu Corporation and had constituted Justice Manjunadha commission.
Ramanujaya asserted that the Kapus were also watching the biased statements of Mudragada and would not buy his lies. He wondered why the Kapu leader had met several of the YSRCP leaders in Hyderabad and avoiding the Kapu leaders from the TDP.
Deputy Chief Minister Chinarajappa took strong exception to Mudrada’s criticism of the TDP and Chief Minister.
He said that the Kapu leader was trying to mislead the Kapus who were already receiving the benefits. He sought to advise Mudragada not to politicise the Kapu welfare issues. He also feared that Mudragada’s statements would cause harm to the community as they might fail to receive the benefits being extended by the government.
“He is spreading lies though the government is extending benefits. The Manjunatha Commission is getting ready for survey to recommend reservations for the Kapus. The Kapu Corporation is extending benefits. There is a possibility of the Kapu youth missing all this due to the misleading statements of Mudragada,” he said.
