Rival parties are resorting to nonstop mutual allegations with the polling day a few days away. CM Chandrababu Naidu is addressing a larger number of election meetings than any other contender in the state. He devotes more time for listing out his government’s achievements but his main attack is on YCP leader Jaganmohan Reddy. At the same time, Naidu is not using the name YSR Congress Party in any of his speeches nowadays.
Naidu is using ‘Kodi Kathi Party’ only to refer to the YCP. CM is making a mocking mention of how Jaganmohan Reddy has fooled himself by trying to take advantage of the Vizag airport attack case. YCP tried to blame and corner the TDP by taking political advantage of the airport attack but eventually it turned out to be an attack by Jagan’s own fan. Jagan exposed himself by even complaining to the President about the Kodi Kathi attack at that time.
Because of YCP’s continued references to the Vizag incident, the Kodi Kathi incident remained in public memory. This has become as an advantage for Naidu and TDP leaders to call YCP as Kodi Kathi Party. What more, Naidu is even asking voters not to support Kodi Kathi which indirectly refers to Jaganmohan Reddy.
