The Telugu Desam party is already facing conflict internally due to the lack of adequate action against YCP activists and extremists despite the onset of their government. The main complaint is that several YCP extremist are still happily roaming the streets and perhaps even enjoying government positions even under the NDA government.
To make matters worse, lawyer G Dinesh Kumar Reddy, who is a close associate of the former AAG of the Andhra Pradesh government under Jagan tenure, Ponnavolu Sudhakar Reddy, has somehow managed to grab a key post during NDA government.
As shocking as it may sound, Dinesh Kumar Reddy, who argued against Chandrababu in the falsely charged Angallu case in August 2023 had been appointed as SPDCL Madanapalle Operational Legal Counsel member a few days back.
Dinesh Kumar Reddy had actively supported Sudhakar Reddy in the court arguments against Chandrababu in this false case which became a sensation in Jagan tenure. And after the onset of the NDA government, instead of taking any sort of corrective measures against him, local authorities had the audacity to give him a key nominated post.
This exposed the lack of ground level understanding in the TDP government and there was a huge protest on the same. After a round of endless protests by TDP social media groups who exposed the issue, SPDCL CMD Santosha Rao announced the cancellation of this appointment and vowed to trace back who referred Dinesh in the first place.
But nevertheless, the very fact that the lawyer who had assisted the argument against Chandrababu at court found himself in a government position in NDA tenure is leaving TDP cadres frustrated. In the YCP tenure, the posts were entirely given to their support groups. That’s why they fought like warriors for Jagan. This fighting spirit is lacking under the Chandrababu administration, remarked a neutral overseer.
