Rosaiah has last laugh

Chief Minister K Rosaiah had the last laugh over the controversial tour of Kadapa MP Y S Jaganmohan Reddy, who failed to get the high command’s nod to his Odarpu Yatra despite hectic lobbying by him, his family friend K V P Ramachandra Rao and also Moily, who is also a known well-wisher of YSR family.

In the morning, Rosaiah refused to make any comments on Jagan’s outburst against him and holding his government responsible for the violence at Mahbubabad in Warangal district on May 28. “It is not the time for me to make any comments,” he said.

However, the chief minister lodged a complaint with the high command against Jagan’s comments against him and the way he had addressed him (Rosaiah) in first person thereby disrespecting his stature and age.

“One can imagine what sort of comments he would make against the government during his tour,” Rosaiah told the high command. By evening, things moved fast and the high command snubbed Jagan as well as Moily. Having no other option, Moily also denied of giving any permission to Jagan.
