Jaganmohan Reddy’s grandfather Raja Reddy was a hardcore, notorious faction leader in Kadapa district in those days. What atrocities Raja Reddy committed against backward classes families there is being highlighted now by Finance Minister Yanamala Ramakrishnudu? Hailing from BC Yadava community, Ramakrishnudu is chosen by TDP to attack and expose Jagan’s fake love towards BCs as a whole.

YCP is holding a ‘BC garjana’ where it is making a BC declaration to list out what Jagan will do for their welfare after coming to power in the state. Ramakrishnudu counted this saying Jagan’s family has got a dark anti-BC history. While his grandfather Raja Reddy tortured, murdered and eliminated several BC families altogether, his father Rajasekhar Reddy got many BCs arrested and harassed, the Minister said.

Ramakrishnudu accused YSR family of having made BC families fall prey to faction politics. Even Jagan has done nothing during the time of his father to help the BCs nor did he raise his voice in support of the BC community either as MP or as the Opposition leader. It is only after NTR founded TDP that the BCs got some recognition and identity of their own in political power corridors, Ramakrishnudu said.
