Around a month ago, Powerstar Pawan Kalyan was in news when several media houses reported that Pawan will take part in protest meets acts Tamil Nadu against the Tamil Nadu government’s new order of abolishing Telugu language in Tamil schools. However, there has been no news from Pawan Kalyan until now and there were several noises against Pawan’s backtracking.
As per the latest reports, the BJP’s high command in the centre requested Pawan Kalyan not to oppose Jayalalithaa, with whom they have been trying to maintain a healthy relationship since the last year general elections. Senior BJP leader from state M Venkaiah Naidu reportedly convinced Pawan against taking part in protests in Tamil Nadu.
Political circles have been commenting that BJP’s pressure was the reason behind Pawan not attending even the Tamil Nadu Telugu Yuvasakthi protest meet in Hyderabad recently. During the meeting, senior filmmaker Thammareddy Bharadwaja and CPI leader Narayana opined that Pawan’s presence would help the protests gain momentum.
