Pawan Kalyan warns against ‘jeopardising alliance dharma’
Reiterating that the Jana Sena Party (JSP), TDP and BJP forged an alliance in public interest and not with any selfish motives, JSP president Pawan Kalyan warned that he would take necessary disciplinary action against leaders whose actions jeopardise it (the JSPBJPTDP alliance).
In a press release on Wednesday, Mr. Kalyan said the “alliance dharma” was being largely respected and followed, and that the party would be forced to act against those working to the detriment of the alliance in furtherance of their personal agendas.
He insisted that the alliance was intended to protect the larger interests of the State and the JSP had been saying from the beginning that the party leaders who aspired to contest in the elections should make sacrifices, if required, keeping in view the objectives of the alliance.
A concerted effort should be made for the victory of the alliance and anyone diverging from the party line would be duly taken to task, and such leaders were being watched out by the central committee for party affairs, he said.
Meanwhile, Ongole MP Magunta Sreenivasulu Reddy, his son Raghava and
Gudur (SC) MLA V. Varaprasada Rao (now BJP candidate from Tirupati Lok Sabha seat) met Mr. Pawan Kalyan separately at the party office near Mangalagiri on Wednesday.
Mr. Sreenivasulu Reddy and Mr. Raghava joined the TDP after quitting the YSRCP.
Mr. Varaprasada Rao resigned from the YSRCP a few days ago and joined the BJP. He was then named the party candidate from Tirupati Lok Sabha seat.
