YSRCP trying to gain political mileage
Deputy Chief Minister and Home Minister Nimmakayala Chinnarajappa alleged that the YSR Congress Party YSRCP was trying to get political mileage over the attack on its president YS Jaganmogan Reddy at the airport at Visakhapatnam recently
Rajamahendravaram: Deputy Chief Minister and Home Minister Nimmakayala Chinnarajappa alleged that the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) was trying to get political mileage over the attack on its president YS Jaganmogan Reddy at the airport at Visakhapatnam recently.
Speaking to reporters here on Monday, he said the State government was working with transparency and accountability to bring out the facts behind the attack and the police department was directed in this regard.
The police already nabbed and interrogated the accused J Srinivasa Rao and obtained information. The accused was stated to be a YSRCP supporter. He clarified that the government was not hiding any information in this regard.
He also said, “So far YSRCP president YS Jaganmohan Reddy failed to give any complaint to the police and he was saying that he does not believe in Andhra Pradesh police.”
The Home Minister pointed out that Jaganmohan Reddy walked nearly 3,000 km with the protection provided by the police and in future also the government will continue the protection to him.
“If the attack on him was true, why Jaganmohan Reddy is not giving complaint to the police,” he questioned? In future also YS Jaganmohan Reddy should take the protection of Andhra Pradesh police in the State for his programmes, he pointed out.
He alleged that the YSRCP created a fake identity card of the accused J Srinivasa Rao branding him as Telugu Desam Party (TDP) member. He said the YSRCP leaders met Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh and others demanding for a third party inquiry only to get political mileage.
The YSRCP leaders were trying to make the issue a larger one only to misguide the people, Rajappa said. They are trying to tarnish the image of Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu basing on this issue.
He said people do not believe the attack drama on Jaganmohan Reddy and with this the career graph of YSRCP president Jaganmohan Reddy had come down drastically. Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu was giving top priority to law and order in the State, he said.
