YSRCP general secretary Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy spoke out about the attack on Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, calling it a deliberate attempt to harm him and disrupt his bus yatra. He emphasized that the attack was planned and used a sharpshooter to target Jagan and another YSRCP candidate, causing serious injuries.
Ramakrishna Reddy pointed fingers at the TDP-JSP-BJP coalition, suggesting they had motives to stop the success of the yatra. He played clips of TDP chief Nara Chandrababu Naidu inciting violence and hatred towards Jagan, linking it to previous instances of unethical behavior within the party.
Despite the attack, Sajjala reiterated that the yatra would continue after a brief pause for medical evaluation. He emphasized that the party does not seek sympathy but is confident in their victory in the upcoming elections. He also mentioned the need for a thorough investigation to uncover any involvement of political figures in the attack.
Sajjala commended the peaceful response of YSRCP supporters and stressed the importance of maintaining security without impeding leaders’ interactions with the public in a democratic society. He expressed hope that the investigation would bring justice and shed light on the perpetrators behind the attack.
