CBI court has on Thursday heard arguments on the bail petition filed by Mopidevi, charged of involvement in the disproportionate assets case against Y S Jaganmohan Reddy. While the former minister has stated that he has been going to Sabarimalai since the last 19 years and urged the court to give him bail as he has already taken Deeksha, CBI has argued that if he came out at this time, he would influence investigation.

It is learnt that he is going to discuss Minister Dharmana Prasada Rao issue with the senior leaders at Delhi.

It may be mentioned that the state cabinet has rejected permission to the CBI to prosecute Dharmana, named accused in the Vanpic case. The file is now with the governor for disposal.

Narasimhan is also likely to discuss about the Telangana issue in Delhi.

Talking to a news channel, he said his blood boiled when he heard charges leveled at his sister. He has strongly condemned those allegations. Stating that NTR was an idol to all the Telugu people, Jaya Krishna said he belonged to every one.

Meanwhile, Purandeswari’s other brother Hari Krishna has also expressed anger at critics of his sister. He has reportedly warned TDP Parliamentary Party leader Nama Nageswara Rao to refrain from cheap talk against his sister.

NTR’s children were all hurt by the remarks hero Bala Krishna made against his sister. They have felt that other leaders are taking advantage of his remarks and attacking Purandeswari.

Though Jaya Krishna and Hari Krishna have not named Bala Krishna, their warnings to other TDP leaders might make even Balayya refrain from attacking his sister.

He said leaders of his party who were only stating that Jagan would come out of jail on bail, were unable to firmly state that he had not indulged in corruption.

Lokesh said the money swindled by Jagan was equivalent to the load carried in thousand Lorries of hundred rupee note bags.

Mentioning about the claim of YSRCP leaders that their surveys revealed a clean sweep by the YSRCP in the next elections, Lokesh questioned why then they were buying MLAs of other parties.

The current party president, the enigmatic K Chandrasekhar Rao or KCR, is reaching old age and allegedly he has been suffering from few health issues as well. He has been said to be absent from few of the public meetings because of this very reason. Of late, it has also been noticed that he restrains from giving long speeches.

If this situation continues, it will soon be time to change the leadership and the need to find an appropriate successor. So the successors- in-line are K T Rama Rao and Harish Rao. Speaking hierarchically, KTR is son of KCR and might end up inheriting the position. However, there is also Harish Rao who has been associated prominently with the party right from the stage of its inception. Not only that, he has also been instrumental in building the party cadre from scratch and providing strength and support to the party. Indeed, his support to the party cannot be ignored or neglected.

After the voting on FDIs, Sujana Chowdary made some provocative remarks. He had said that “dogs would bark when elephants walk”. He said that some leaders were criticizing him not knowing their own status. Senior leader and MLA Payyavula Keshav has seriously resented the remarks.

Leaders like Kottakota Dayakara Reddy have also expressed anger at the attitude of Sujana Chowdary. TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu, who intervened, has reportedly counseled that Sujana Chowdary should have observed restraint in view of the hurt feelings of party leaders and MLAs.

After Naidu’s intervention, Sujana Chowdary reportedly called Keshav, Dayakar and others and expressed sorry for his remarks. He has said that he had no intention of hurting any one and said if he had said anything wrong, he was regretting.

Responding to the letters written by the home ministry, Harish Rao has said that it now became clear that the all-party meeting was only a ploy to delay solution to the problem and not finding one. He has charged Congress of cheating the people of Telangana once again. He has demanded that both the Congress and the TDP should now clarify their stands. He said the two-eye theory would no longer hold good. He said Chandra Babu Naidu who wrote a letter to the Centre asking for calling of all-party meeting, should also make his party’s stand clear, before the meeting.

Stating that it was the desire of all the family members that NTR’s statue should be erected in the Parliament, Hari Krishna said it was not important as to who was responsible for it. He said it was improper on the part of any one to politicize who was instrumental for it. He also felt that it was just a family matter and neither the TDP nor the sons-in-law (Naidu and Daggubati) should intervene in it.

Hari Krishna has also said that the party’s image has suffered because of three MPs abstaining from the voting on the FDIs in the Rajya Sabha. He said because of what they had done, they were unable to stand upright and show their faces to other opposition members.
