Minister Peddireddy Ramachandra Reddy’s statement that he would have emptied the TDP, had he been the Chief Minister, seems to have more meaning than what it appears.
Reading between the lines, YCP rebel MP Raghurama Krishnam Raju said that the statement itself indicates that Peddireddy is a very brave man and he is the right candidate for chief ministership, in case YCP president and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy goes to jail, as he is facing charges in disproportionate assets case.
Peddireddy’s statement made within a few hours after national news channel Republic TV aired a report on ‘dissent simmering among YCP senior leaders’ gained political significance and speculations are rife that there are many party leaders eyeing the CM chair.
RRR said that Peddireddy has all the qualities to be a stopgap chief minister in the gap between court giving the verdict and getting bail for the same. He is educated, wealthy and also has two Reddys in his name. Moreover, Peddireddy is a reliable man, he said and added that he ensured that a majority of the panchayat elections were unanimous in Chittoor district and also saw that YCP won from Kuppam, the bastion of Chandrababu Naidu , as was declared by the minister earlier. He has the capacity to be a chief minister, RRR said.
Peddireddy has aspiration to become the CM and it is to be seen if he gets a chance, the Narsapuram MP added.
Had Jagan’s sister Sharmila been in Andhra Pradesh, she would have replaced her brother but unfortunately, she moved to Telangana and in such a confusing state, Peddireddy is being seen as a leader giving assurance to the YCP activists that he can lead the pack, in the absence of the CM, RRR pointed out.
There is no other person more eligible and competent to be the next CM than Peddireddy, he asserted.
On the municipal polls, RRR also said that the Vizag corporation polls cannot be considered as a referendum for Jagan’s rule. There are threats issued to the electorate that the benefits they have been taking would be stopped if they vote against the YCP, apart from the power of money and liquor that can influence voters, he said.
