Telugu Desam Party (TDP) general secretary Nara Lokesh’s Yuva Galam padayatra in Vijayawada has failed to evoke any public response in Vijayawada city, and looked like an evening walk by Mr. Lokesh, YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) leaders alleged.
Addressing a press conference at the party office at Tadepalli on Sunday, YSRCP MLAs Malladi Vishnu and Velampalli Srinivas and Vijayawada East Coordinator Devineni Avinash said the TDP padayatra was boycotted even by its own MPs like Kesineni Srinivas (Nani) and Galla Jayadev. Many of the TDP leaders did not take part in the padayatra and paid artists from other constituencies had to be roped in, the YSRCP leaders said.
