Akhila-Subba row back to square one!

Akhila-Subba row back to square one!

Within two days of agreeing to bury the hatchet and giving a commitment to Telugu Desam Party president and chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu that they would work together for strengthening the party in Allagadda, the feud between tourism minister Bhuma Akhila Priya and senior TDP leader A V Subba Reddy appears to remain unabated.

After giving their nod to the fatherly advice given by Naidu, Akhila and Subba Reddy began their group clashes soon after returning to Allagaddda.

It is learnt Subba Reddy held a meeting of his followers in the town. He reportedly told them that Naidu had assured him of the Allagadda assembly seat to him in 2019 and asked them to gear up to do door-to-door campaign from now on.

Needless to say, the news has reached Akhila and caused her a lot of disgruntlement.

She, too, held a meeting of the TDP leaders close to her family and wondered how Subba Reddy could claim the party ticket for Allagadda in 2019, when she was already there as a sitting MLA.

“How can he launch a campaign for himself, when the elections are very far away? I am already a sitting MLA of Allgagadda and without my knowledge, how can he hold the party meetings?” she asked.

Akhila is learnt to have said she would not keep quiet if Subba Reddy continued his aggressive approach.

“In the meeting with Naidu, Subba Reddy assured that he would extend all support to me. Now, he is trying to demoralize me,” she alleged.
