KCR and Jaganmohan Reddy’s silence over their recent Delhi visits reveals more than it hides.
Andhra CM Jaganmohan Reddy’s letter to the CJI, levelling allegations against Justice NV Ramana and some judges of the AP High Court, has opened the proverbial can of worms.
The TRS government is balancing development and welfare. YSR Congress is busy fixing problems created by its predecessor.
But politicians like Jagan Reddy have sensed the yearning among the masses for English medium instruction and will provide this, despite the intellectuals hissing this is a 'World Bank agenda'.
Despite facing attacks from the Congress and other opponents, Jagan constantly played the credibility card, reminding the electorate of his legendary late father. It was a storm Chandrababu Naidu couldn’t weather.
Having witnessed high-voltage campaigns and vivid drama, and after casting their vote through a violent polling day, the Telugu states will be in some political lull for the next 42 days.
Just like his father before him, Jagan Mohan Reddy is meticulously building up a huge support base. And unlike Rahul Gandhi, he is not treating political success as an inevitable legacy.
Jaganmohan Reddy completes his 3000-kilometre 'padayatra', spanning 14 months across Andhra Pradesh. Will Chandrababu Naidu soon have to walk away from the CM's chair?
