Andhra Pradesh: CM Jagan calls Pawan Kalyan ‘marriage star’, says it’s not wise to vote for JSP chief

In yet another scathing attack on the personal life of Jana Sena Party (JSP) president Pawan Kalyan, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy on December 29 (Friday) called him a “marriage star in real life”, citing that the actor-turned-politician had divorced two wives.

Addressing a public meeting in Bhimavaram town in West Godavari district, Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy said, “Mr. Pawan Kalyan is changing wives in every four years. I have been blessed with two daughters. Can any parent of girls believe a politician like Mr. Pawan Kalyan? What will be the future of girls if everybody draws inspiration from Mr. Pawan Kalyan after he was voted to power as an MLA or the Chief Minister?”

Before the public meeting, Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy released ₹584 crore towards fee reimbursement which was deposited directly into the accounts of the mothers of more than 8.09 lakh students under the Jagananna Vidya Deevena scheme. The State government has released ₹11,900 crore as a part of the scheme so far.
