Mahanadu On NTR Jayanti Is Crowning Irony: YS Jagan

Leader of opposition in Andhra Pradesh legislative assembly and YSRCP president YS Jagan Mohan Reddy said that Chandrababu Naidu garlanding NTR’s photograph at TDP Mahanadu was the crowning irony of things. In fact, nothing could be more ironic than having the party celebration on NTR’s birth anniversary, he observed.

The YSRCP president said that Chandrababu Naidu had stabbed his father-in-law, NTR in the back, dislodged him from his chief ministership and stripped him of all his assets including his Trust and house. Chandrababu was finally responsible for NTR’s death, he added. In the light of all these facts, it was odd to see Chandrababu Naidu holding his party Mahanadu on the birth anniversary of NTR, the YSRCP chief remarked. One can well gauge Chandrababu's character from these facts, he observed.

In Mahanadu, Chandrababu claims that the division of Andhra Pradesh was done in Delhi and in an unjust fashion. In Telangana he says that it was on the basis of his letter that the state was divided and that it was his vote which was the deciding factor in granting statehood to Telangana. YS Jagan pointed out these ambivalent traits in Chandrababu's character.
