Prime Minister Narendra Modi stunned everybody by calling and greeting YCP MP Raghurama Krishnam Raju in the Parliament hall. Modi called Raju by his name and asked whether everything is fine. Obviously overjoyed, Raju went nearer and touched Modi to take his blessings. All this happened in front of the other YCP MPs like Adala Prabhakar Reddy, Vemireddy Prabhakar Reddy, etc. They are visibly shaken as Modi didn’t even look towards them. They are stunned at the way Raghurama Raju used the crisis in YCP to become close to Modi in his first term itself as MP.
The incident took place just two days after CM Jaganmohan Reddy imposed restrictions asking his MPs not meet or greet Modi and Union Ministers during the Parliament session. Raghurama has gone against Jagan orders and he is openly supporting the cause of Telugu medium in government schools. There are also reports that some YCP MPs are becoming friendly to the BJP in Delhi. Not only that, other YCP MPs are unhappy over the high handed behaviour of Vijayasai Reddy.
Political circles in Delhi are interpreting the incident as a clear indication of Modi’s constant watch on AP situation and also his increasingly tougher stance against Jagan draconian policies.
