YS Jagan Mohan Reddy seem to have got restless after the state government stopped the telecast of his Sakshi Channel in some areas to prevent possible lawlessness after Mudhragada Padmanabham’s arrest. Jagan called for a press meet and tried to put pressure on the government in this issue.

“Chandrababu had started a new tradition by stopping Sakshi. Never in the past, it happened like this. Even YSR also did not touch media. There are channels of parties in Tamil Nadu but the telecasts were never stopped. Today it happened to Sakshi, tomorrow it may happen to other channels. Chandrababu is curbing freedom of Press,” Jagan fired.
Jagan termed it as a Black Day to media. However TDP leaders say Jagan and his media should behave responsibly. They said all the channels complied to government’s instructions to prevent law and order problems but Sakshi tried to fan Caste fights for petty political gains. They asked Jagan only to talk about Freedom of Press when his media starts following media responsibilities.
