Why Has KCR So Much Concern For Radhakrishna?

Why Has KCR So Much Concern For Radhakrishna?

The unusual concern displayed by Telangana Rashtra Samithi president and chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao towards Andhra Jyothy managing director Vemuri Radhakrishna has become a hot topic of debate among media circles.

KCR, along with his cabinet colleagues, officials and Hyderabad Mayor Bonthu Rammohan, visited Andhra Jyothy office at Jubilee Hills on Tuesday and personally went round the areas which were destroyed in a fire accident four days ago.

In fact, KCR called up Radhakrishna and enquired about the accident soon after it happened. He also sent his daughter and Nizamabad MP Kavitha and other senior TRS leaders to the Andhra Jyothy office a couple of days ago.

This has come as a big surprise to many people, as Radhakrishna, a typical Andhra entrepreneur, is a known supporter of Telugu Desam Party and was also strongly opposing the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh during the peak of Telangana movement.

He even carried several stories exposing the alleged corruption of K T Rama Rao prior to the bifurcation.

In the initial days of Telangana formation, Andhra Jyothy and his ABN channel carried several negative stories on KCR and the TRS government, as a result of which the channel was blacked out by the cable TV operators for over a year.

Finally, Radhakrishna compromised with KCR and for the last one-and-a-half years, has turned completely pro-TRS paper.

Sources said KCR is now very much fond of Andhra Jyothy daily, which highlights his government’s achievements much more than his own mouthpiece Namasthe Telangana.

Though people know that KCR has become Radhakrishna’s friend, but now it appears to be much more than just friendship.

It is learnt Kavitha has some business relations with Radhakrishna and that could be the reason for KCR’s unusual interest in Andhra Jyothy!
