CM Chandrababu Naidu

Andhra Pradesh CM Chandrababu Naidu was talking to a gathering of TDP members when he broached the topic of YS Vivekananda Reddy’s murder.

The TDP chief reminisced he was the CM when the murder took place. But like the people of Andhra Pradesh, I too believed what was shown on TV, said Babu.

I woke up on that day and Sakhi TV had news that Vivekanda Reddy died of heart attack. I believed it. They brought the coffin and were ready to conduct the funeral, when his daughter Sunita got a doubt.

The post mortem was conducted and it emerged that Viveka was axed to death. Immediately he (Jagan) changed his story. He started wailing that he lost his father and someone killed his uncle and that he was orphaned.

I was shocked by this story change within an hour, said Babu. But it did not stop there. The next morning, there was a new story in Sakshi newspaper saying ‘Narasura rakta charitra’.

Being a CM, I was helpless. They put picture of me with an axe in my hand. I never beat a person nor do I have a case on me. Today, I am working with criminals (as a political rival) for your sake, Babu told the applauding audience.

Had I got them arrested on the day of Viveka’s death, the story would have been different, said Chandrababu.
