Extended Support to Kapus

YSRCP chief YS Jagan Mohan Reddy extended his support to  Kapu reservations. Here are the highlights of the press conference that he addressed on Monday.

* KAPUS FRUSTRATED: On Kapu issue, he is blaming the YSRCP and the Congress. But, even BJP leader Kanna Lakshminarayana attended the meet. He is not talking about it. He did everything possible to ensure that the meeting flops. He tried to stop the people from attending the meeting. He asked the Kapus in his party not to attend the meeting.

* PRESSURE TACTICS: It is Chandrababu who created unrest in Tuni to blame the Opposition party. He is now trying to emotionally blackmail the TV channels so that they are afraid of covering Kapu agitation. Kapu leader and the then minister Hari Rama Jogaiah had said that the TDP had killed Vangaveeti Ranga. One of the accused in Ranga murder is Speaker of AP Assembly today. The other is a minister and another is an MLA from Vizag.

* DIVIDING COMMUNITIES: Chandrababu is trying to drive a wedge between Kapus and BCs. In the past, he did left the SCs divided into Malas and Madigas. Kapus were BCs till 1956. Tamil Nadu has 69 percent reservations. He too can do a similar thing by bringing pressure on the Centre to amend the constitution. The commission he has now appointed has no direction and guidance. If he is sincere, he should withdraw his ministers from the Central government if it is not getting a constitutional amendment.

* ADVICE TO KAPUS: The Kapu agitation is fully justified. But, my only appeal is to ensure that there is restraint. Let the agitation be peaceful lest the Chief Minister blame Kapus for violence.
