The Bharatiya Janata Party national and state leaders are dropping all hints on how they are going to corner YCP boss and CM Jaganmohan Reddy sooner than later. Union Minister Amit Shah openly praised MP CM Ramesh indicating that their party would give equal priority to leaders who join their party. Now, BJP AP President Kanna Lakshminarayana has set a 6-month deadline for Jagan to prove its impartiality in governance.
Kanna warned the Jagan government of serious repercussions if it did not implement pro-people programmes. He demanded that the ruling YCP should take immediate measures to implement 10 per cent reservations for poor candidates from open categories. Kanna said that the Modi government at the Centre has introduced this to provide support to the youth. The AP government has not yet begun its implementation which may increase the problems of the unemployed youth in the state.
Political circles say that the BJP’s changing strategies may cause greater harm to Jagan and his party rather than the TDP in the coming months. Of the 6-months deadline, already two months are nearly over. The BJP national leaders are also expected to step up their attacks on Jagan by this year-end. YCP will face bigger trouble from the BJP than the TDP considering the national party’s desperation to capture power by hurting the ruling party in AP.
