Ex-home minister Sucharita says she is not quitting YSRC
VIJAYAWADA: Former AP home minister and YSR Congress MLA Mekathoti Sucharita has rejected rumours that she is quitting the YSRC and joining the Telugu Desam. “I will continue in the YSRC,” she affirmed on Friday.
Rumours that Sucharita along with her husband and former IRS officer Dayasagar would be quitting the YSRC were circulating in political circles and social media platforms. Sucharita dismissed these as false. She clarified that she would remain at home if ever she quit the YSRC and would not join any other political party including the TD.
Sucharita recalled that during the term of the Congress-led government, she wanted to join the YSRC and discussed the matter with her husband Dayasagar. He did not object to it despite facing political pressures, she said.
Sucharita said the news of Daya Sagar joining the TD was also baseless.
Meanwhile, Dayasagar in a press release here on Friday affirmed that the family had a special bonding with the late YSR family and with present CM, Jagan Reddy. He said he took VRS six months ago and from that time on, rumours were circulating about his joining the TD.
He said that he’s “a super fan of YS Jagan” and will continue being loyal to the YSR family. He recalled that CM Jagan gave top priority and a prominent place to Sucharita and he was very much thankful to the CM for that.
“Every civil servant cannot become an MP or MLA. If I desire so, I shall publicly inform the same to all,” he said.
Dayasagar appealed to the media to stop circulating false and fake news.
