Avanthi Srinivas and Gudivada Amarnath were earlier called Guru-Shishyas. But they do not get along with each other now. Avanthi losing a cabinet berth and Amar getting one worsened things.
The differences between them got exposed again the other day.
“Officials and the people’s representatives do not have to go to other ministers because I am not a minister. I am the senior after Peddireddy and Botsa. I can do any kind of work. I can talk to the CM if necessary and resolve the issues. Therefore, no one should go to the ministers of the neighboring districts,” said Avanthi Srinivas.
Avanthi was addressing the people’s representatives in his constituency.
He was responding to a quote from local public representatives on development works and issues at the Bhimili Mandal Parishad all-party meeting in Visakhapatnam district on Friday.
This very much reflects the insecurities of the former ministers after losing power.
Already, YSR Congress is weak in the erstwhile Vishakapatnam district despite making all attempts to impress the people. These issues between the leaders will not help the cause.
