A couple of days after the surfacing of a video footage showing secret meeting of controversial former IAS officer Nimmagadda Ramesh Kumar with Bharatiya Janata Party MP Sujana Chowdary and former state minister Kamineni Srinivas at Park Hyatt hotel in Hyderabad, a counter-campaign has started in the social media circles.
The campaign seeks to spread the message that the “Operation Park Hyatta” which was planned in a systematic manner by the YSR Congress party leadership to trap Nimmagadda had in fact boomeranged on the party.
It says the video footage collected by the state intelligence sources from the star hotel had in fact revealed that it was not just Nimmagadda and Kamineni, but several YSR Congress party leaders had also met Sujana Chowdary in the hotel room over a period of 7 days.
The social media story says the intelligence authorities submitted a report to Jagan Mohan Reddy along with the video footage, which said at least 35 MLAs and three MPs had secretly met Sujana Chowdary in the hotel room. And the chief minister was reportedly shocked at seeing the report.
The counter-campaign apparently wants to make the people believe that there is a largescale disgruntlement in the party and many leaders are now looking towards the BJP. It says Jagan has become alert and asked the intelligence to keep a tab on the activities of these people who had met Sujana.
It is not exactly known who is behind this counter-campaign. A section of people say it is a deliberate plant by the State BJP, particularly the batch closer to Sujana, to create confusion among the cadre.
Another section says this campaign was the handiwork of controversial YSRC MP from Narasapuram Raghurama Krishnam Raju who is also closer to Sujana Chowdary. And there is no surprise even it was planted by the Telugu Desam Party leaders to counter the onslaught on Kammas!
