Lokesh is a brand ambassador of corruption

Hyderabad: YSR Congress Party MP Mithun Reddy made severe criticism of Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and the alleged involvement of Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu in the Air Asia scandal. Speaking to media at the party central office here today, he said that the TDP leaders were diverting the Air Asia scam by making false propaganda on the resignations of YSRCP MPs. The ruling TDP MPs did not listen to our request to resign from the Lok Sabha for strengthening the fight for Special Category Status (SCS) to AP. He observed that the TDP MPs seem to have changed their mind now. The centre would certainly have accorded the SCS, if all the 25 MPs from the state had resigned, he reiterated.

He asked what good did Chandrababu do to the state in the last four years. "Nara Lokesh is a brand ambassador of corruption. He has lost the right to speak on the issue of corruption. Did you forget your father being caught red-handed in Notes for Votes scam," the MP asked Lokesh. YSRCP President YS Jagan Mohan Reddy is striving for the welfare of the people of the state, he said. The Parliamentarian stated that the YSRCP will seek people's verdict after the resignations are accepted by the Lok Sabha speaker.
