YSR Congress Party on Monday castigated TDP President N Chandrababu Naidu for his uncharitable remarks against YS Jagan Mohan Reddy.
“YS Jagan Mohan Reddy and Chandrababu Naidu and are two contrasting personalities while our leader has sacrificed high positions and rejected many offers the latter has usurped power from his own father-in-law in a bloodless coup and played power games all through,” party official spokesperson, GattuRamachandra Rao told reporters here.
Naidu was only resorting of character assassination and was trying to defame YS Jagan Mohan Reddy by hurling allegations and abuses but in fact, Naidu is everything that he is blaming our leader for, he said.
While the TDP leader only had two-acre land before marriage, he should explain as to how he could get hold of the multi-crore Heritage Foods. People who invested in his company were given Rajya Sabha seat, while YSR had told many times that he was a tax payer from his student days itself, he said.
Chandrababu Naidu was an embodiment of corruption and manipulation while YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has promised to give a corruption-free state which serves the people and takes care of the marginalised section of society, students, farmers and old age people.
While YS Jagan Mohan Reddy won the Kadapa Parliament, Pulivendula and Kovur assembly seats on his newly formed party, Naidu has never won an election on his own, barring the 1999 polls where arithmetic of having a pact with BJP has fetched him in the backdrop of Kargil war, he said.
Value-based politics and credibility are the founding pillars of YSRC. Naidu on his part, has appropriated TDP from NTR and had driven away all the family members of the founder president in a methodic manner, he said adding that there was no truth in Naidu alleging that YSRC has tied up with Congress.
“How can YSRCP tie-up with Congress. Jagan has come out of the party as there was an attempt to demean YSR’s image. TDP has ganged up with Congress and a series of events stand testimony to prove this, right from the no confidence motion till the impleading in the Congress minister’s case against the controversial GOs,” he said adding that TDP has become a branch office of Congress.
Naidu has asked why YSRC has not contested the by-polls in Telangana. We have made our stand very clear on the issue that we will not contest the by-election if any one resigns on a strong sentiment unlike Chandrababu Naidu who could not field a candidate in the Banswada by-election, he said.
If the TDP leader is so sincere, he should get a clean chit from a court or some other credible enquiry commission about his assets to disprove the charges leveled by YS Vijayamma, he added.
