Pawan Kalyan's volte face

Pawan should tell why he likes Naidu: YSRCP

Continuing the tirade against the combine of TDP-BJP-actor Pawan Kalyan for their unwarranted, baseless and mala-fide propaganda against its president Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, YSRCP on Friday sought an explanation from the actor how he found a Good Samaritan in Chandrababu Naidu who he once described as a leader who opened doors for corruption.

Addressing media persons at the party headquarters, YSR Congress party senior leader Dr. M.V. Mysura Reddy said Pawan Kalyan's criticism of YSR and Jagan Mohan Reddy is pure opportunism, irrelevant and quite meaningless.

Mysura Reddy read out excerpts from page 194 of Sri Krishna Committee report that said that a separate group was formed in TDP seeking separate state for Telangana after Chandrababu Naidu became CM for second time and that, akin to the 1969 situation, KCR launched TRS in 2001 aiming to achieve statehood for Telangana region in the backdrop of NDA regime carving out Chattisgarh, Utraranchal and Jhakhand states in 2000.

'He must also know that most TRS leaders had also tried to join Congress en masse after YSR took over as CM for second time,' he said, adding Telangana creation was the result of Congress maladministration and politics of conspiracy by TDP.

While this was the fact, Pawan Kalyan conveniently chose to make baseless allegations against YSR and Jagan Mohan Reddy, Mysura said, calling his joining hands with BJP and TDP unethical and opportunist.

Mysura said the actor purposefully ignored the fact that BJP had promised to form Telangana state within three months of coming to power and that TDP gave letters twice or thrice in support of Telangana formation.

'While both BJP and TDP claimed during their election campaign in Telangana that they were responsible for Telangana state, Pawan Kalyan himself had once said that BJP pressurized Congress to declare Telangana,' he said, adding all of them are singing out a different tune in Seemandhra and attacking Jagan Mohan Reddy and YSRCP purposefully.

The combine's attack against Jagan Mohan Reddy has no meaning and is only aimed at garnering votes and seats. 'The trio's criticism is of dual policy, double-tongued, unethical, irrelevant and opportunistic and far from facts,' he fumed. 'It has no meaning.'

Pawan Kalyan's volte face

Mysura said that what was most astonishing was that as a Praja Rajyam leader, Pawan himself had once described Naidu as the man who opened doors for corruption. Mysura read out from clippings of newspaper reports to say that the actor called the TDP's grand alliance a combine of fraud and cheating.

'Pawan has no moral right to criticize Jagan Mohan Reddy as he had described Naidu as the one who opened doors for corruption and described TDP as a paper flower,' Mysura observed, flaunting the clippings. 'What is the change you saw in Naidu for eulogizing him now' he asked.
