Congress and YSR Congress parties have been charging AP CM Chandrababu Naidu for engaging director Boyapati Sreenu to shoot a short film while he and his family members were conducting Pushkar rituals at Kotagummam ghat on the day one of the Pushkarams.But, the fact is that both parties are intentionally making this baseless allegation to defame the AP CM.

Of course Chandrababu Naidu has engaged Boyapati Sreenu for shooting short film, but not for filming his family members conducting Pushkar rituals. He was engaged to shoot ‘Godavari Harati’ program that is being performed daily in the evening time.

AP government has launched this ‘Godavari Harati’ recently inspiring from ‘Ganaga Harati’ being conducted in holy Banaras city on the banks of River Ganga every day evening. Chandrababu Naidu, who was not happy for the poor response to ‘Godavari Harati’ has engaged director Boyapati to shoot a short film on it so as to telecast it in the TV channels and popularize it as a major attraction in Godavari Pushkaralu.

Hence, Boyapati and his team have filmed ‘Godavari Harati’ program a day before the tragic incident occurs. But, Congress and YSR Congress parties have grabbed this opportunity to misguide the people of the state.

If we closely watch this picture it can seen it is late evening time and so the lights were glowing behind Boyapati. We can also see Boyapati is giving instructions to his cameraman while Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu is lighting the "Harati" placed in a plate on the table. This is clearly indicating that Boyapati was engaged to shoot "Godavari Harati" program, but not the Pushkar rituals performed by Chief minister family at morning 6.26 am.

This is revealing how Congress and YSR Congress parties are playing very cheap tricks to misguide the people in a bid to defame the state government and the Chief Minister.
