At a press conference on Sunday, Telugu Desam Party senior leaders Ashok Gajapathi Raju, Thummala Nageswara Rao and A evanth Reddy challenged YS Jagan Mohan Reddy to pull down the government, if he can. They asked him to parade 100 Congress MLAs, whom Jagan claims are his followers, before the governor. If Jagan dares to do that, the TDP will also parade their 90 MLAs before the governor in unison.
Lambasting Jagan Mohan Reddy and his mother Vijayalakshmi, who got elected as MLA from Pulivendula recently, the TDP leaders said that the YSR Congress had missed an opportunity to put the government in the dock. Even Vijayalakshmi, who took oath as MLA, did not attend the session held to elect the Speaker of the House. "This shows that either Jagan does not have the support of that many members as he claims or there is some kind of 'match-fixing' between him and the Congress high command," the TDP leaders said.
