Kapu Stir: Mudragada rips apart Chandrababu's statement

In a hard-hitting rebuttal of Chandrababu Naidu's comments on Kapus, community leader and former minister Mudragada Padmanabham said Chandrababu Naidu himself was responsible for the Sunday's violence. He said rowdy elements were specially coached and brought in create violence at the meet.

Talking to mediapersons at his Kirlampudi residence in East Godavari district, he said he suspected there would be more such planned violence in the days to come to defame the Kapus. He said he and his wife would launch an indefinite fast from 4 PM on Monday and if the gets arrested, he would continue the fast in the prison. He called upon the people not to come to Kirlampudi, but to stage peaceful protests locally. "I want to benefit my community before I die,"he said.
He also refuted Chandrababu's allegation that he had sold himself to a political party. "I had agitated in the past against the Congress. Did Chandrababu buy me then? If so let him reveal how much did he buy me for?"asked Mudragada.
He said the TDP government was following use and throw system while dealing with Kapus. "The government has money for foreign tours, chartered flights and crores to spend on Pattiseema project and Amaravati inaugural. But, has no money for Kapus,"he pointed out.
