Jagan Prefers KNR Over Kodali Nani For Gudivada Seat!

Lately there had been news that the sitting TDP MLA from Gudivada seat Kodali Nani is likely to join YSR Congress Party. But the speculation over his joining YSRCP has come to an end with Krishna District Zilla Parishad former chairman Dr. K Nageswara Rao meeting Jagan on Wednesday in Chanchalguda jail. Though KNR did not meet the media or make any public statement, his presence at the Chanchalguda jail along with other leaders, confirmed his decision to switch over to the new party. According to sources, YSRCP chief Jagan Mohan Reddy is believed to have offered him the Gudivada Assembly seat, for which he too agreed.

Dr. K Nageswara Rao, a strong Congress man from the eastren region of the district, was the ZP chairman, for five years. He had tried to get assurances on the Congress ticket for the Machilipatnam Lok Sabha constituency for the 2014 elections. However, there was no leader to assure him of the party ticket, he switched over to the YSR Congress. According to the party sources, Nageswara Rao had staked his claim for the Machilipatnam Lok Sabha seat from the YSR Congress. Instead, Jagan Mohan Reddy gave his clearance for Gudivada assembly seat.

It is said that for this reason, the sitting Gudivada MLA Kodali Nani, deferred his decision to switch over to the YSR Congress, as planned earlier. His supporters had even setup flexi banners in Gudivada area greeting the YSR Congress on its victory in the by-elections. It was almost decided that Nani, along with the TD Vijayawada urban unit president, Vallabhaneni Vamsi Mohan, would meet Jaganmohan Reddy and announce their joining the new party. The two leaders made a U-turn and Nani met the party chief Chandrababu Naidu, two days ago, dismissing the talk over his leaving the TD.
 

Modi Is Not Our PM: Owaisi

MIM is a recognized state political party based in the Indian state of Telangana, with its head office in the old city of Hyderabad, which has its roots in the Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen founded in 1927. Unlike most of the regional and national level parties, MIM party leaders ‘fight’ only for the well-being of Muslims, whereas no other party has such communal feelings. In their each and every speech, MIM leaders speak only about Muslims. If these leaders are here to fight for Muslims, then why there are no development works are happening in old city area for decades. Akbaruddin Owaisi faced criticism for making hate remarks on Narendra Modi and Hindus. Recently, his elder brother Asaduddin Owaisi made some notorious annotations. In a one-on-one debate between BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra and Asaduddin Owaisi on the topic of demonetization in a popular Hindi channel, the former left no stone unturned in exposing the latter’s communal designs. Owaisi claimed how most of the Muslim community still remains unbanked and that demonetization has caused severe inconvenience to Muslims. He even went on to say that ATM’s in Muslim-dominated areas weren’t fed enough money. He indirectly alleged that the Modi government hadn’t done anything for Muslims. Even after being pressurized Owaisi didn’t call Narendra Modi as his Prime Minister. He went on said, “Your Prime Minister…” On the other hand, Sambit spoke wisely and called Owaisi a leader of small stature because he talked only of Muslims. He said that no area was Muslim or Hindu and that all areas belonged to India. Owaisi was constantly quoting an RBI report, to which Sambit challenged him to show where the RBI had used the word ‘Muslim’. Sambit even said that if a Muslim leader speaks of Muslims it’s not an issue, but the moment a VHP leader speaks of Hindus people go crazy accusing them of imposing the Hindutva ideology. The most amazing of his counters was to Owaisi’s claims of Muslims not having been brought into the banking system. Sambit said that when banks or ATMs are to be opened in Muslim areas leaders like Owaisi shout that banking is un-Islamic and that Muslims should refrain from it! This video of debate between Sambit Patra and Asaduddin Owaisi is going viral in social media.
