If one were to observe the earlier press meets of Pattabhi, he has never used such derogatory language.
So, his latest reference to the Chief Minister YS Jagan using such a vulgar word has shocked everyone. But, it was all played out according to a script conceived by the TDP.
When senior TDP leader Chintakayala Ayyana Patrudu had recently spoken negatively of Jagan, it evoked widespread resentment among YSRCP cadre culminating in an attack on Chandrababu’s residence in Undavalli by YCP MLA Jogi Ramesh.
The TDP figured that Ramesh took to the extreme measure as there is an impending cabinet reshuffle and he is one of the ministerial aspirants.
Realizing the YCP cadre’s weakness of jumping the gun at the drop of a hat, the TDP got Pattabhi to abuse Jagan and the reactions from the YCP have been exactly what they expected.
Chandrababu took this opportunity to complain to the Centre of the lawlessness in Andhra Pradesh and also pulled the opportunity for conducting a bandh.
Backing him in the media was Pawan Kalyan who requested the Central forces to step in. In short, it was a perfect script executed by Naidu and Co.
Both Naidu and Pawan requesting the Union Home Ministry to take charge also lends strength to the speculation that the TDP and Jana Sena will once again fight together in 2024.
