YSRCP leaders strongly condemned Telugu Desam Party MLA and senior actor Nandamuri Balakrishna’s derogatory comments against party chief Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy.
MLC Tummala Madhava Rao said Balakrishna had spoken in the assembly without any context, making disgraceful remarks that only exposed the internal rifts within the coalition.
“If Balakrishna has problems with Chandrababu Naidu or Pawan Kalyan, he must resolve them within his camp. Dragging Jagan into their factional fights is unacceptable,” he stated.
Madhava Rao reminded that everyone knows how Balakrishna managed to escape from the firing incident at his own residence, questioning his moral right to attack others.
He asked what efforts Balakrishna or Pawan Kalyan had ever made to bring the film industry to Andhra Pradesh, whereas Jagan extended support despite no personal stake.
“You were treated with respect, but you went back to Hyderabad to abuse Jagan. If Telangana CM hosting film personalities is acceptable, why is it wrong when YS Jagan does it?” he questioned.
State general secretary Jupudi Prabhakar hit out even harder, branding Balakrishna as the real “psycho,” and warned that YSRCP would not tolerate baseless accusations and warned that stronger responses would follow if such behaviour continued.
“No one surpasses Balakrishna in such behaviour. He even secured a mental health certificate in the Bellamkonda Suresh firing case. A man with such a history calling Jagan a psycho is laughable,” he said.
“Cinema may have made Balakrishna a hero on screen, but among the people Jagan is the true hero. The word ‘psycho’ suits Balakrishna himself, not Jagan. If he does not keep his mouth and behaviour under control, he will face an appropriate reply,” Prabhakar warned.
