Trolls have a field day over TD move
Adusumilli says democracy was not in danger but TD in crisis.
Vijayawada: The war of words between those supporting and those opposing the Telugu Desam (TD) and Congress alliance is storming the social media. Social media warriors of the TD, BJP and YSRC and netizens are flooding the social media with their posts supporting or lambasting the TD-Congress alliance.
TD supporters and the IT wing of the TD are posting content supporting and justifying the alliance as a historical need to save the nation in view of the changed circumstances. Interestingly, hardcore cadres of the TD and the Congress, angry over the alliance, are quitting their parties and posting in detail about lack of moral values hurting the public.
NRI CBN Army claim that N.T. Rama Rao formed the TD to protect the self-respect of the Telugu people and to save AP from the slavery of the Union government. They refute claims of the TD having been formed as an anti Congress party and allege that the opposition parties are misleading the Andhra public using NTR’s name. They further claim that N.T. Rama Rao himself worked with the then Prime Minister, Rajiv Gandhi, and there is nothing wrong with the TD allying with the Congress.
Guntur MP, Galla Jayadev, commented on Facebook, “A lot has changed, it has now become very clear that this government under Narendra Modi and Amit Shah will not do anything for Andhra Pradesh. Building a united opposition & forging alliances is a democratic compulsion.” He claimed that AP CM Chandrababu Naidu met Mr Modi 11 times and visited Delhi 29 times to get SCS but in vain; hence he accepted the Congress promise of SCS.
Former MLA, Adusumilli Jayaprakash, who was once associated with TD commented that Indian democracy was not in danger but TD was in danger and in crisis. He ridiculed the alliance saying that, “Mr Naidu tied rakhi or Mr Rahul tied mangalsutra”” for the alliance. Former Rajya Sabha MP, Yarlagadda Lakshmi Prasad, commented, “Self-respect is nothing but ‘power’ to present TD leaders.” TD supporter Chundu Sudhakar, who had aggressively posted against the YSRC, stated in his last post on Facebook that he had lost everything due to slavery to the TD and was now quitting the TD, politics and social media with a saddened heart.
A netizen Khadar Basha, recalled that his father Sha Vali had arduously worked for the victory of Nedurumalli Janardhan Reddy in the Bapatla MP constituency in the year 1998; later several Congress leaders and activists had migrated to the TD and other parties but his family had continued in the Congress for the past 10 years. He commented that he was feeling ashamed to continue in the Congress after its alliance with the TD and was quitting the Congress by resigning the post of district Congress committee general secretary.
