East Godavari: Leader of the Opposition in the AP Assembly and YSR Congress Party chief YS Jagan Mohan Reddy on Friday said that he wants both the Dalits and non-Dalits to stay united in Garagaparru. He said acts of omission or comission of one of two persons should not be attributed to the whole village.

The YSRCP chief paid a visit to trouble-torn Garagaparru in Palakoderu mandal of West Godavari district, which is in the eye of the storm over the clash between the Dalits and non-Dalits over the installation of Ambedkar statue.

He counselled them that it is important to stay united and stay together.

YS Jagan met both the sections of the village. Responding to YS Jagan's appeal, the non-Dalit sections said that they want peaceful co-existence with everyone and that they had no objection to the installation of Ambedkar statue in the village.

He also formed a three member committee comprising Sarraju, Koyye Moshen Raju and M Nagarjuna to protect and preserve harmony among various groups in the village.
