YSR Congress party leader Sharmila, during her Maro Prasthanam padayatra at Nujiveedu in Krishna district, has shot a straight question to Kiran Kumar Reddy government. She asked when Jagan Mohan Reddy can influence the witnesses if given bail, then why is the government not arresting its ministers who were charge sheeted by CBI in the same cases of her brother. Why it is letting its ministers roam free, who also may influence the witnesses. She alleges that both Congress and TDP have join hands in conspiring against her brother Jagan Mohan Reddy. She blamed both of them for the present crisis in the state.

Her remarks may create immense pressure on Kiran Sarkar, as it has no explanation to offer to her. More over, the opposition parties also have intensified their demand for expulsion of Home Minister Sabita Indra Reddy and others, from the cabinet, who were charge sheeted by the CBI.

The beleaguered government is desperately looking towards New Delhi to know its decision on this case. Sonia Gandhi, who will be returning to New Delhi today, may take-up this issue on priority bases. Whatever decision she may takes, it is going to impact the state politics. If, she asks Kiran to expel Sabita Indra Reddy from his cabinet, it will pave way for others too. If, she prefers to back her and change her portfolio then, it will be an indication that Congress party wants to deal Jagan’s issues and its ministers’ issues separately. In such case, opposition parties including YSRCP may further intensify their attacks on Congress party. Especially, YSRCP may spearhead with the attacks, if it believes that its President Jagan Mohan Reddy’s release from jail is not in the vicinity.
