Balineni unwell, under treatment for hypertension?
X
The latest cabinet reshuffle by AP Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has left many senior politicians deeply shocked and disappointed. Highly placed sources say that YS Jagan's close relative and Prakasam district strongman Balineni Srinivasa Reddy suffered a shock and is now being treated for hypertension. If sources are to be believed, he is being treated at his residence in Hyderabad.

Balineni was quite tensed up for the past several days over losing the ministry. He pleaded with Jagan to retain him too if he is planning to retain education minister Adimulapu Suresh. He felt if he is dropped and Suresh is continued, it would be a huge loss of face for him. But, various reports have shown that he was all set to be dropped from the cabinet, while Suresh would be continued.

For the past several days, he has been camping in Hyderabad and was not accessible to anyone from the constituency. He is said to have tried through several channels to remain in the ministry but to no avail. Sources say he has been suffering from hypertension for the past 48 hours and is being treated at his Hyderabad residence.

Meanwhile, it is a huge disappointment for Speaker Tammineni Sitaram too. Tammineni moved heaven and earth to become a minister for one last time before signing off his long political career. But clearly, Jagan seemed to have other ideas as far as Tammineni is concerned.
