Will AP Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy fulfil the promises he gave to the two MLAs who defeated Pawa Kalyan in 2019 elections? In fact, in the runup to the 2019 elections, Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan has contested from both Gajuwaka and Bhimavaram in West Godavari districts. During the campaign, Jagan had promised a ministerial berth to the YSRCP candidate who defeated Pawan Kalyan.
Later, it turned out that Pawan Kalyan lost from both the seats. The victors from the YSRCP became heroes. In Gajuwaka, YSRCP Nagireddy has won while Grandhi Srinivas has defeated the Jana Sena chief Granthi Srinivas. The question is whether YS Jagan will keep his word? The district had given 13 of the 15 seats in West Godavari and already there are two ministers from the district. Sources also say that Grandhi Srinivas stands a better chance of becoming a minister as he is the senior among the two. But, Jagan can make Grandhi a minister only by removing one of the sitting ministers. So, who will vacate his ministry to accommodate Grandhi? Realising that he stood a chance of becoming a minister, Grandhi too has upped his ante and has gne hammer and tongs against Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan.
But one question remains. What about Alla Ramakrishna Reddy, who too is a giant killer. He had defeated none other than Nara Lokesh and cast a shadow over Lokesh's political career. There is no talk of Alla Ramakrishna Reddy being made a minister. Wonder why?
