‘Thokki Padestha Kukka’ Thunders Minister for Asking Jobs

Minister Jagadish Reddy went crazy at a young man who asked for jobs and the unemployment allowance promised before the previous elections. “I will trample you and your leader (నిన్ను, నీ నాయకుణ్ని తొక్కిపడేస్తా). I have seen many dogs like you,” the Minister thundered.

The minister was speaking in Anumula Mandal Kottapalli on Tuesday as part of the Nagarjunasagar by-election campaign, Alugula Ashokreddy, an unemployed man from the same village, came to the Minister’s vehicle and questioned him regarding the jobs and unemployment allowance.

The Police who were at the Bandobast sent him away. The person is said to be Ashok Reddy, who did his M.Sc and worked as a teacher in a private school. He lost his job after the lockdown. He is doing farm works in the village. While the Minister suspects him to be an activist of BJP or Congress, the man claims himself to be a follower of JP.
