Ever since the country has been witnessing lockdown on account of Coronavirus pandemic, actor-turned-politician and Jana Sena Party chief Pawan Kalyan has been in a virtual inaction.
People have not been able to find him neither in politics nor in acting. All the shooting schedules have been cancelled, though there has been a hush talk that some part of the shooting for “Vakeel Saab” has been going on somewhere in a farmhouse.
When the people are being put to untold miseries, Pawan is nowhere to be seen nor or his Jana Sainiks in extending them relief.
May be here and there, some local leaders of the party are trying to help the people, but on behalf of the party, there has been no action plan whatsoever with regard to Covid-19 relief works.
Even in the social media and mainstream media, Pawan has been missing in action. But on Wednesday, the Jana Sena Party chief suddenly surfaced and issued a statement expressing anguish over “certain ruling party leaders” attacking their political rivals, rather than concentrating on controlling Coronavirus.
Stating that Corona pandemic has been creating a havoc across the world, Pawan said Andhra Pradesh has been facing a major crisis. The growing number of cases in Guntur, Kurnool and Krishna districts have created a panic among the people.
“Under these circumstances, some big leaders in the ruling YSR Congress party have been unleashing an attack on the opposition party leaders who are pointing out mistakes in the administration,” he criticised.
He said the personal attacks on BJP state president Kanna Lakshminarayana were part of the overall strategy to run down the opposition, which should be condemned by all democratic minded people. The ruling party leaders should tender unconditional apology to Kanna Lakshminarayana, he demanded.
“Let us set aside politics, till Corona menace leaves the state and the country. Let us not indulge in cheap politics but use all our strengths to saving the lives of the people and mitigate their hunger and other miseries. If we do not stop our dirty politicking, there is every possibility that the people might revolt against the parties,” Pawan said.
