YSRCP chief and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy on Wednesday claimed that TDP supremo N Chandrababu Naidu is wishing for harm to befall him, but asserted that the people will save him. The chief minister made the allegation at Bobbili in Vizianagaram district during a public meeting as part of the last day of his four-day whirlwind election campaign tour across the state.
«I will not forget Chandrababu's remarks in the assembly that my father (Y S Rajasekhar Reddy) would vanish in thin air. Unable to face me, he (Naidu) is making these kind of untoward statements. Back then against my father and now against me,» said Reddy, addressing a public meeting. The YSRCP chief claimed that the alleged statements by Naidu are a demonstration of his «criminal nature».
«Chandrababu is saying 'what is wrong if Jagan is killed'. Jagan will not die by Chandrababu's wishes, people will protect Jagan,» he asserted.
The ruling party chief called on people to think about the mental state of the opposition leader, alleging that backstabbing and «killing people» is his way of doing politics.
