Are Byreddy, Shabari getting ready to leave BJP?
X
Will the famed Byreddy family continue in the BJP? Will both Byreddy Rajasekhar Reddy and his daughter Shabari Reddy exit the BJP sooner than later? Are they feeling that a section of the BJP is actually trying to edge them out of the BJP in Andhra Pradesh? Are recent incidents that occurred during the Seema Bheri rally of the BJP an indication that the BJP does not want them anymore?

During the recent Seema Bheri public meeting organised by the BJP in Kurnool, senior leader and former legislator Byreddy Rajasekhar Reddy was not given an opportunity to speak. In fact, Byreddy has been waging a lone battle on issues pertaining to Rayalaseema. But the BJP did not ask him to speak during the public meeting.

Realising the gaffe, AP BJP president Somu Veerraju has tendered an open apology and said that this has happened due to oversight. One thought that the issue would be buried after Somu Veerraju's apology. But, Byreddy's anger was not doused and he skipped the state executive meeting of the party held on March 20 and 21 in Kurnool.

However, his daughter Shabari did attend the meet, which had BJP South India incharge Suprakash State incharge Sunil Deodhar, State president Somu Veerraju and organising secretary Madhukar. When Shabari wanted to speak, a senior officer gave her just two minutes. Shabari was upset at this and cut short her speech. After this incident, both Byreddy and Shabari are said to be sullen and are even planning to leave the party. Political observers say that their continuance in BJP now is doubtful.
