Why did Vijay Mallya retweet Jagan’s Pic?

Well, for anyone who thinks of the billionaire businessman Vijay Mallya, one will definitely assume all things luxurious and non-political to say the least. To everyone’s surprise today, Vijay Mallya has retweeted Magunta Srinivasulu Reddy’s profile picture on Twitter, which has him and YSRCP President Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy. While this has got everyone in the political circles talking, many on social media are questioning the connection between Mallya and YSRCP.

Magunta, who was a senior leader in the TDP and served as the party’s national vice-president, recently joined YSR Congress Party. Several netizens who questioned the connection between Magunta’s tweet and Mallya are now stating that there could be a business relationship between the two.

According to some reports, Magunta had earlier been approached by Vijay Mallya to be one of board of directors for Mangalore Chemicals and Fertilisers which runs the UB Group. Magunta is also said to be a long-time business associate of Vijay Mallya. However, some supporters from the TDP point fingers at Jagan’s recent visit to London, having something to do with Vijay Mallya and how this deal could have been made there.
