Kiran hints to get rid off Jagan loyalists?
Updated : Feb 11, 2013
CM Kiran Kumar Reddy, who returns from New Delhi recently seems to be given a free hand to firmly deal with dissidents in the party. Responding to the feed back given by party leaders of Addanki constituency in Prakasham district about their MLA Gottipati Ravi Kumar intentions of joining YSR Congress party, said “Those who are going to ruin themselves will take such decisions. It makes no difference to Congress if a handful of MLAs leave the party to join the other. They will be replaced with the young generation leaders, with whom the party can win the elections. Just like the new water replaces the old water in the river, new leaders replace the dissidents in the party. Congress party depends on the workers and not on the leaders. It was proved with the cooperative society elections.”
In wake of Botsa Satyanarayana’s recent announcement about expelling 9 MLAs loyal to YS.Jagan Mohan Reddy, Kiran’s statement is hints that the party is ready to face mid-term elections rather than running the government at his mercy.
