While YSR CP president Jaganmohan Reddy is about to sit on fast in Guntur today , TDP national general secretary Nara Lokesh accused Jagan of attempting to foment unrest in the state and TDP would not allow it to happen. In the first strong political reaction after being elevated to the stop slot in the party, Lokesh said Jagan was inciting certain sections of the society in the state and his indefinite fast was part of the conspiracy.

Jagan is sitting on fast in Guntur’s Nallapdu road to put pressure on the state and centre to accord special status to Andhra Pradesh. To participate in the fast, Jagan left by car from Hyderabad. Before reaching the venue he would visit the Kanaka Durga temple in Vijayawada to seek blessings for Goddess.

Already, thousands of supporters of YSRC are pouring into Guntur to witness the inauguration of Jagan’s fast.

Lokesh now reacted on the fast defending his father solo performance even at the age of 65 years. “We have information that the YSRC leader is inciting youth and students to damage the public property by sending messages through Whats App. If there is any such eventuality, the TDP will fight it out and put pressure on the government to prosecute Jaganmohan Reddy by including him as accused no. 1,” Lokesh said. Termed Jagan as ‘Dongabbai’ Lokesh said YSRC leader was attempting to obstruct the development of the state.

“Starting from the capital city, Jagan is continuously raising objection to every developmental program the TDP government initiated . He had incited people at Pattiseema project, Machilipatnam port and Bhogapuram airport to oppose the land acquision. If it is not stalling development, then what is it?” Lokesh asked. When he needed 33 acres of land in Bangalore for palace, how could Jagan oppose the farmers offering 33,000 acres to construction of new capital city, which is going to serve the entire state for ages, he said.

Lokesh asked Jagan and other YSR followers to return the lands taken by them during the regime of YS Rajasekhara Reddy. “Without creating a single job, Rajasekhara Reddy’s government grabbed 5.75 lakh acres of land from farmers . Where is the this land?.”
