TDP senior member and ex-Minister JC Diwakar Reddy has been known for expressing his views and opinions in the most vocal way possible, for a really long time now. This senior politician is not known to be subtle about anything, and that is exactly what happened in his most recent interview with a TV channel.
Amidst allegations and speculations that the Andhra Pradesh government has targeted JC and his family, the politician has made some bold statements, which will surely not sit well with the government. JC said that he wished Chandrababu to rule AP twice as much as Jagan would, because Chandrababu is the only fit leader currently, who knows what to do, unlike Jagan.
JC said that he and the other members of TDP would put a knife to Chandrababu’s throat and threaten him to rule the state, if need be so. JC also said that this is how he will exact his revenge against the YSRCP government. JC also said that Chandrababu is a very honest person, who only wants to do good to the state, and has no ill-will.
Furthermore, JC also said that the members of the TDP had to face a lot of hardships once they have become members of the opposition. JC said that Chandrababu had promised the members protection from the party, but has also said that there has been no protection at all. He questioned if Chandrababu would back the members of TDP, if they showed cases and proof of all the attacks they had to face, and asked if Babu would take action against the culprits. JC also said that things will drastically change if Chandrababu failed to do so.
These statements from JC have truly turned out to be quite the stir, with everyone belonging to the political community now discussing these statements – which are both patronising and opposite in nature, towards Chandrababu, at the same time.
