With 28 legislators standing by his side, rebellious Congress MP YS Jaganmohan Reddy Thursday night sent out a veiled message to the party leadership suggesting his patience might be wearing thin about the "injustice" done to his "ardent supporters".

"A lot of injustice is being done to my ardent supporters like Konda Surekha (former minister who quit in protest against not making Jaganmohan chief minister) and Ambati Rambabu (former MLA who was suspended from party). I am unable to tolerate this. I don’t know how long I will continue to be restrained like this", Jagan told a public meeting in Kakinada town.

The public meeting marked the culmination of the second leg of Jagan's controversial "Odarpu Yatra" that had begun on July 8 in Srikakulam district and continued in East Godavari district on Thursday.

Trying to strike a chord with the huge gathering, the son of late Chief Minister YS Rajasekhara Reddy refrained from launching a direct attack on the party leadership in general and Chief Minister K Rosaiah in particular whom he had targeted occasionally during the course of his tour.

"How nice it would have been if the state government paid Rs one lakh, Rs two lakh or Rs three lakh to each family whose kin died either of shock or committed suicide following the tragic death of our great leader YS Rajasekhara Reddy? Were those people not Congress voters? Why were these bereaved families not consoled by any Congress leader after the tragedy?", Jagan said.

The Kadapah MP said he had announced his intention to undertake the Yatra on September 25 last to console the bereaved families.

"At that point of time, there was no politics or any sort of conspiracy. But later it was made a big issue," Jagan said.
