Sources indicate that party leaders are advising YCP leaders to criticize Chandrababu Naidu, Pawan Kalyan, and Nara Lokesh. But in recent times, only a few leaders have been vocal in criticizing the TDP and Janasena, while the majority of the ruling party's representatives have remained silent.
There is an opinion that as the YCP leaders are not showing much of interest and commitment to criticize opponents that has led the Chief Advisor to the government, Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy, to address the media directly.
It is suggested that the commitment of these leaders to YCP or Jagan will be measured on the basis of criticizing opponents, and such individuals are given priority in ticket distribution.
According to this perspective, Minister RK Roja consistently criticizes political rivals Chandrababu, Lokesh, and Pawan Kalyan from dawn till sunset, but nothing much of importance has been given to her.
Leaders within her own party who oppose her are being granted positions and jobs for financial gains.
For instance, R. Chakrapani Reddy was appointed as the Chairman of the Srisailam Trust Board, and the former municipal chairman of the city, KJ Shanti, became the chairperson of the State Ediga Corporation.
Additionally, Shanti's husband, the ex-municipal chairman, KJ Kumar, was allotted Mines in Nagari constituency.
Party leaders are actively supporting individuals in every mandal against Roja in the city, empowering those who oppose her.
This is the recognition given by the YCP to Roja, who passionately criticizes her opponents. Does it make sense to deny tickets to some for not criticizing opponents?
