YSRCP MP Gorantla Madhav’s comment that ‘Naidu will die in 2024’ triggers a row

YSR Congress Party’s (YSRCP) Member of Parliament from Hindupur Gorantla Madhav triggered a row on October 26 when he allegedly said that Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national president N. Chandrababu Naidu would die in 2024, and Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy would become the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh once again.

Mr. Madhav was said to have made the controversial remarks during the party’s first leg of ‘Samajika Sadhikara Yatra’, at Bukkarayasamudram of Singanamala SC Assembly constituency in Anantapur district.

Condemning the statement of the YSRCP leader, former Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) president S. Sailajanath on October 27 termed it as unfortunate. Such a statement would only strengthen the speculation that the YSRCP government was trying to physically eliminate Mr. Naidu.
