He was once the unquestioned king of Nellore politics. Today, several flip-flops and wrong moves, he is now almost ignored and sidelined in the district politics. Today the situation is such that he could not secure an appointment with AP CM’s advisor, let alone CM’s appointment.
We are speaking about Anam Ramanarayana Reddy, who is a senior leader and a minister for several years. He was a Congress stalwart, who shifted to TDP first and then to the YSRCP, hoped for a ‘recognition’ after Jagan became the CM. When he couldn’t wait any longer, he began hurling barbs against YS Jagan government. He first criticised the officials and later the local MLAs. He also ignored the two ministers from the distict claiming that they were too junior to him. All this was not taken kindly by the YSRCP leadership, especially by YS Jagan. Hence Jagan has completely ignored him even when he was trying to rehabilitate seniors who had worked with his father.
Sources say that given this situation, Anam Ramnarayana Reddy may not have much future in the party. No one is trying to meet him these days. In fact, he himself sought an appointment with CM’s advisor to explain his position. But, if the sources serve us right, the appointment was not given.
