An intriguing incident unfolded during YS Jagan's public meeting in Pulivendula, where the Chief Minister faced blunt criticism from the YSRCP cadre on a sensitive topic.
Pulivendula, known for its candid residents and their unique bond with Jagan, has a reputation for speaking openly, even if it means confronting their leader.
During the meeting, reliable sources suggest that Jagan encountered tough questions aimed at improving the party’s prospects.
The confrontation reportedly centered around Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy, the former Chief Advisor to the Government and current YSRCP State General Secretary.
Party members from Pulivendula questioned Jagan about why Sajjala remains in his influential position, citing him as one of the key reasons behind the party's recent setbacks.
According to trusted sources, Jagan was visibly surprised by the directness of the criticism. When told about Sajjala's perceived role in the party's troubles, Jagan reportedly asked, "Is that so?" with apparent disbelief.
The Pulivendula cadre expressed their opposition to Sajjala in no uncertain terms, demanding not just his sidelining but a complete removal from any position of influence.
Faced with this strong resistance, Jagan, though initially taken aback, reportedly acknowledged their concerns and responded with a simple, "Okay, okay," signaling he had taken note of their grievances.
