YSR Congress party honorary president YS Vijayamma has made a dismaying statement yesterday. She said “Congress party has divided the state only to reduce the influence of my son Jagan Mohan Reddy. Congress, which is afraid of him, has taken this hasty decision. It fails to justify rest of the state, while taking this decision. Then, how can people expect it justify them during bifurcation process? Instead of behaving like a head of the family, Congress takes decision that helps its leaders only. Even today, its leaders are speaking with forked tongues. While, some are supporting division of the state, some are agitating opposing the decision. Some others are sitting on the wall playing neutral role in this whole affair. Even TDP also betrayed the people of both regions with its dual stands. Whether, YSR is alive or not, there are lakhs of people in both regions, who love and worship him till today.”

If, Vijayamma believes that Congress has divided the state only to reduce her son’s influence on the state, then what about the separate state demand raised by 4 crores people of Telangana? Is Jagan factor is much important than their agitations for Congress?

If, Jagan has so much influence on the state, then why it is not reflected in Co-Operative Society and Panchayat elections held recently in both regions? Can she assure a sweeping victory for her party even today in Telangana region, because she says there are lakhs of YSR fans in the region? If so, then why did her party has so suddenly winds-up its activities in Telangana region? Why did it keep quite all these days until Congress announces its decision?

It is nothing but an attempt to project her darling son Jagan Mohan Reddy up above the all in the state, where as he himself shrinks his status to a sub regional leader by taking ‘U’ turn on Telangana. Now, his party in way is comparable with any of the parties in the state, except TRS and MIM parties, which also perfectly fits into same category.
