YSRCP Thwarts TDP's Conspiracy in Jaggayyapeta

Hyderabad: Even as the ruling TDP created many hurdles,  the YSR Congress party succeeded in  clinching the Chairman post in Jaggayyapeta municipality. Though the YSR Congress won majority wards, Vijayawada TDP MP Kesineni Nani resorted to creating law and order problem and also foisted cases agaisnt YSR Congress members but his efforts proved a futile exercise.

Addressing the press at party head office in Hyderabad, party senior leader K Parthasarathi said that TDP tried in vain to poach the elected YSR Congress members. The members were also threatened if they did not join rulng party. However, the YSR Congress members did not succumb to the pressures and stood by the party. 

He said it was unfortunate that false cases were also registered against Chairman designate Rajagopal before the election conducted in the presence of  Returning Officer in the municipal office. Parthasarathi alleged that Chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu was behind the whole episode in Jaggayyapeta.
