Ex-MP Undavalli Arun Kumar made several interesting comments about Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy recently. He asked why the AP government was not taking any action against the privatisation of the Visakha Steel Plant, and for what purpose the state government is not fighting the central government’s decision.
Undavalli said that Jagan has already been to jail, and that going to jail would not be anything new to him. Undavalli asked Jagan to go to jail because that’s as worse as things could get if the Chief Minister decided to go against the Central government.
Undavalli said that in no other state did a party win with as much majority as the YSRCP did. He asked that the YSRCP government could accomplish a lot of things with its majority – 51% votes and 151 seats. Undavalli reminded Jagan that the opposition parties’ accusations of the YSRCP not responding to the privatization of the steel plant due to corruption would turn out to be true if the YSRCP lets the steel plant be privatised.
Undavalli said that it was not in the nature of YSR to stay quiet when there was injustice going on. He asked Jagan to do the same and to act in the same spirit. He asked Jagan to hold a public meeting in Visakhapatnam and show the Central Government the spirit of the state government.
