KURNOOL: A meeting of top leaders belonging to Telugu Desam and Jana Sena on Saturday in Nandyal has decided to form a joint action committee (JAC) comprising members from both parties.
The decision to form the JAC was arrived at in a meeting of the political action committee (PAC) of Telugu Desam, in which leaders of Jana Sena participated. Incidentally, the meeting was held at the RK Function Hall in Nandyal, the venue from where AP CID arrested TDP chief N. Chandrababu Naidu on September 9 for his alleged role in the AP Skill Development Corporation scam.
The PAC meeting in Nandyal on Saturday was attended by AP TDP president K. Atchennaidu, Hindupur MLA Nandamuri Balakrishna and party senior leaders Yanamala Ramakrishnudu, Nakka Anand Babu, P. Ashok Babu, Beeda Ravichandra, Nimmala Ramanaidu, B.C. Janardhan Reddy and Vangalapudi Anitha.
TD national general secretary Nara Lokesh participated in the meeting virtually.
Following the conclusion of the meeting, Atchennaidu estimated that 97 people had lost their lives following the arrest of Chandrababu Naidu.
He disclosed that Chandrababu Naidu’s spouse Nara Bhuvaneswari is planning to initiate her hunger strike on Monday, October 2, against the former CM’s arrest.
Atchennaidu urged people to show their dissent over Naidu’s arrest by switching off all lights at their homes from 7 p.m. to 7:05 p.m. on Monday, October 2.
Hindupur MLA and TD leader Nandamuri Balakrishna announced his full support to Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan's Varahi Yatra. The JS president is set to embark on a four-day visit to Machilipatnam parliamentary constituency starting on Sunday.
Balakrishna accused Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy of booking a politically motivated case against Chandrababu Naidu and arresting him without any concrete evidence. He declared that the upcoming assembly elections will be the last for the ruling YSRC Party, as political dynamics have changed.
