It is known that media Mughal Ramoji Rao is a strong supporter of the Telugu Desam Party. Since the party’s inception, Eenadu has been surprising the grand old party no matter who is leading the party. Besides pro-TDP, Eenadu also has an anti-Congress stand which troubled the former Chief Minister of the combined AP YSR.
This made YSR wage a war on Ramoji Rao and he reportedly filed a few petitions against the newspaper to get him under control. No matter what, Ramoji Rao did not change his style and he is still following the same stand.
Just like YSR, Ramoji Rao is also troubling his son YS Jagan Mohan Reddy who is the Chief Minister of the divided Andhra Pradesh. He is highlighting various issues in the state. The popular newspaper is also unearthing various irregularities and giving a headache to the ruling party.
Now it appears that the Andhra Pradesh government wants to act tough against Ramaoji Rao. Reports say that raids are underway at the offices of Margadarshi Chit Fund. Alleging a few violations the searches were called by Andhra Pradesh’s Registration and Stamps department.
Political analysts say that the searches might be part of efforts by Jagan to bring Ramoji under control so that he won’t become a headache. As the next general elections are one and a half years away the Chief Minister wants no issues from the media as a section of the media is already targeting the YCP.
Though the efforts made by YSR to bring Ramaoji Rao under control did not pay off we have to wait and see if Jagan can succeed where his father failed.
