Scores of YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) supporters led by YSRCP Godavari regional youth coordinator Jakkampudi Ganesh staged a sit-in on the road, condemning the allegations levelled against his family by Jana Sena Party (JSP) supremo K. Pawan Kalyan at a public meeting on Saturday.
Mr. Ganesh is the brother of Rajanagaram YSRCP MLA Jakkampudi Raja, while Mr. Pawan made the remarks while addressing the public meeting during the ‘Varahi Vijayabheri’ yatra. At around midnight, on April 20 (Saturday), Mr. Ganesh and his supporters staged the protest at Gadala village in Rajanagaram Assembly constituency. The protest was held immediately after the convoy of Varahi yatra had passed the Rajanagaram area.
On Saturday evening, Mr. Pawan Kalyan had allegedly said, “Jakkampudi Raja family has been involved in the ganja trade, illegal sand business and operating blade batches. The Gadala area is the base for all these anti-social activities.”
