YSRCP sitting MLAs are revolting against Jagan over transfers from their own Assembly segments: Naidu

TDP National President N. Chandrababu Naidu on January 29 stated that sitting YSR Congress party MLAs began to revolt against Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy for transferring them from their own Assembly constituencies for the 2024 Assembly elections in Andhra Pradesh. 

Addressing the gathering at the ‘Ra Kadali Ra’ campaign here in East Godavari district, Mr. Naidu added that Cabinet Ministers have also joined the revolt against Mr. Jagan’s decision to reshuffle them from their present Assembly constituencies.

“Mr. Jagan has transferred a whopping 68 sitting MLAs from their Assembly segments as a part of the poll strategy and 11 of them are Dalits. As many as 29 sitting MLAs did not get the berth to contest in the ensuing election. It fuelled the revolt by the MLAs against Mr. Jagan and his poll strategy”, said Mr. Naidu.
