Deception is Babu’s
main habit: Pinnelli Ramakrishna Reddy

YSRCP whip and MLA

5 crore people of AP and giving importance to special package, he had deceived
the people again, he said. Exclaiming that the Government was evading as the
opposition insisted on discussion on special category status, he specified that
the assembly marshals were employed to attack YSRCP MLAs in order to shield the
details of Chandrababu’s corruption through special package from being exposed.

to get out of Cash for Vote case. As the Government had ignored the
responsibility to behave according to the wishes of the people, the opposition
was taking the side of the people, he said. He proclaimed that YSRCP’s fight
for the status would continue.

special category status. He also remarked that it was atrocious of the
Government to say that they could find answers in the statement to be delivered

speaker’s podium. He questioned the Government why such a scary situation had
