Jagan Got His Grandfather’s Genes

Yanamala Ramakrishnudu spoke about YS Rajasekhara Reddy and his son ex CM Jagan Mohan Reddy in an interview to a news channel.

Remembering YSR, Ramakrishnudu said that Rajasekhara Reddy was a good politician. He said his nature was such that he helped four people in four different ways.

Being in Congress, he led an opposition team. He was a different man. I have seen him as a CM for two terms and LoP. He was not a man of revengeful politics.

There is absolutely no similarity between Rajasekhara Reddy and Jagan, said the TDP leader. Jagan got his grandfather’s genes.

For the unversed, Raja Reddy, Jagan’s grandfather was a faction leader and was killed due to faction rivalry.

Jagan is a not a politician. He is a strong aspirant for power, said Ramakrishnudu. When asked about Pawan Kalyan, Ramakrishnudu said that he was part of the alliance and came into politics with an ideology.

If he lives up to his ideals, he is bound to grow as a big leader. One must remember that NTR became a great leader as he entered politics with an ideology, said Ramakrishnudu.

The anchor then touched upon the subject of Jagan not attending the Assembly. Ramakrishudu said that like the government has a responsibility towards people through Assembly, the opposition too had a responsibility through Assembly. Why do people elect legislators? Our’s is a participatory, representative democracy. So how can they boycott Assembly? The Communists are 1 or 2, the BJP members are 3 or 4, still they are coming to the Assembly and representing their issues. It is not about numbers.

Jagan has completely failed in representing people’s issues in the Assembly, said the senior leader.
