Konathala Lakshmi Narayana, brother of Konathala Rama Krishna a senior YSR Congress party leader has held a meeting in Anakapalli yesterday opposing the entry of Dadi Veerabhadra rao into the party. Hundreds of Konathala followers have attended this meeting and openly protested Dadi’s entry into party. Konathala speaking to media has sharply criticized Dadi for taking plunge into YSRCP.

“Dadi Veerabhadra rao is an opportunist political leader. He betrayed his mother party, which gave him name and fame. He snapped his 30 years of relations with it merely to ensure party ticket to his son Ratnakar in the forth coming elections. The man who cheated his mother party can’t be relied at all. He has abused our party leadership and party like anything. We have faced lots of problems from him during all these years while his stay in TDP. We are not ready to take his words. We don’t want him come into our party. Even if prefers to join, we are not ready to work with him. He should reconsider his decision about joining our party. We also appeal our party high command to put such opportunist political leaders at a safe distance, otherwise they will ruin the party.”

Indeed it was humiliating welcome for Dadi, who takes plunge into YSR Congress party with great aspirations. Even his followers have staged protest at his house on Saturday condemning his decision and categorically told him that they are leaving him. Dadi is now in such a situation that neither he can return TDP nor can stay in YSR Congress party. It is interesting to watch how he and his party high command will react to these unpredicted developments.
