Jagan has denied me ticket citing the ‘baseless’ I-PAC report, alleges Puthalapattu MLA Babu

In a scathing attack on YSRCP president and Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, the party’s Puthalapattu legislator M.S. Babu on January 2 (Tuesday) alleged that he was denied ticket to contest the ensuing Assembly elections citing the “baseless I-PAC survey.”

Addressing the media here, Mr. Babu, who represents the SC-Reserved constituency in the Legislative Assembly, said, “It is unfortunate and unjust to deny me ticket on the pretext of ‘bad survey report’ of the I-PAC.”

“Though Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy has been claiming for the last five years that he is committed to the welfare of the Dalits, there is, in fact, no justice for them in the party,” Mr. Babu alleged.
