Reason Behind Jagan's Odarpu Yatra in Telangana

YSR Congress chief YS Jagan Mohan Reddy is believed to be contemplating launching his Odarpu Yatra in Telangana in April. Reddy has steered clear of making any statement on the sensitive Telangana issue during his Rythu Deeksha on the pretext that the protest was intended for draw the attention of the government to the problems being faced by farmers of the region.

 

When he embarks on Odarpu Yatra, he will have to maintain silence, not saying `yes’ or `no’, to the Telangana demand, on the pretext that the yatra is intended to console the families of those whose members died from shock in the wake of the demise of YS Rajasekhara Reddy in September 2009. If the Armoor show was his first attempt to test the Telangana waters, the proposed Odarpu Yatra in all districts in Telangana will be in the form of some kind of an electoral incursion.
