There were mixed reactions from the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) MLAs in Kurnool and Anantapur districts to the Cabinet reshuffle by Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy
Five councillors of Allagadda Municipality threatened to resign from their posts in support of Srisailam MLA Shilpa Chakrapani Reddy’s candidature as a Minister, but their voices fell silent later. It is no secret that Mr. Chakrapani Reddy was an aspirant for Cabinet berth. Even as his name was doing the rounds in the party circles, he failed to get the berth and Gummanur Jayaram was retained.
Mr. Jayaram received a warm welcome when he arrived in Kurnool on Thursday evening. Party workers and Kurnool MLA Abdul Hafeez Khan Mohammed led the welcome rally as a crane garlanded the Minister.
