YS Jagan’s move to go on a fast in protest against the projects being taken up by the Telangana government is a master stroke and probably his finest move as a politician. In claiming injustice to AP because of these projects, Jagan has ensured that the attention of the Andhras is riveted on him.
But more importantly, his poser to Chandrababu on why the latter was not questioning Telangana as it was brazenly cheating AP has put Chandrababu in a real dilemma. Chandrababu because of the Stephenson case cannot question KCR beyond a point.
But if KCR were to get away with the projects, Chandrababu would be seen as a person who has betrayed the interests of the Andhras, back home. It’s a beautiful Catch-22 situation for Chandrababu. But for the unstinted support from the yellow media, he would have caved in to the pressure.
