AP Health Minister Kamineni Srinivas had a bitter experience during his Tirupathi Tour today afternoon. Local TDP MLA Sugunamma and her followers obstructed Minister Kamineni, who came attend a function at the SVIMS – Sri Venkateswara Institute of Medical Sciences, in Tirupathi.
Tirupathi TDP cadre protected against the minister for not following the protocol. ‘They have not invited the Local MLA Sugunamma for the event. This is against the protocol,’ said a TDP member.
Meanwhile, TDP MLA Sugunamma confronted Kamineni after Chandrababu’s photo was nowhere to be seen on the posters. Reacting to his, Kamineni tried to reason out the MLA and her followers stating that, the function in SVIMS is purely between the ‘Governing Council’ and is not a political function for inviting someone.
He also reasoned out that, ‘only photos of people attending the function (meeting) will be printed on the posters’.
Speaking to the media, ‘Honorable Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu Garu is the Chairman of SVIMS. Despite that, it is really unfortunate not to see his image of any of the poster/banner’, said TDP MLA Sugunamma.
