Family Dynamics: Sharmila Meets Sunitha Amid Political Speculation

Andhra Pradesh Congress leader YS Sharmila visited her cousin Y.S. Sunitha Reddy on Monday, sparking speculation about Sunitha Reddy joining the Congress party.

On her first visit to her home district YSR Kadapa since becoming the president of the Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC), Sharmila had a two-hour meeting with Sunitha Reddy. The discussion covered various topics.

Sunitha Reddy is the daughter of former minister Y.S. Vivekananda Reddy, who was tragically murdered a few weeks before the 2019 elections. She has been fighting for justice in the case, where some family members are also named as accused by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).

The meeting gains significance amid reports that Sunitha Reddy is interested in joining the Congress party. She is said to be planning a political move against the relatives accused in her father’s murder case.

Kadapa MP Y.S. Avinash Reddy of YSRCP and his father Y.S. Bhaskar Reddy were named as accused in the case. Bhaskar Reddy was recently released on bail, but Sunitha has challenged the bail in the Supreme Court.

Sharmila had previously stated that Vivekananda Reddy was not murdered for his property, as he had already transferred the entire property to his daughter.

Vivekananda Reddy, brother of former Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy, was murdered in Pulivendula on March 15, 2019, a few weeks before the elections. The CBI claims there was a conspiracy to kill him as he opposed YSRCP fielding Avinash Reddy from the Kadapa Lok Sabha seat.

The CBI court in Hyderabad adjourned the hearing in Vivekananda Reddy’s murder case to February 8. Avinash Reddy, Bhaskar Reddy, and five other accused appeared before the court on Monday.

The song highlights how Prime Minister Modi has translated the dreams and aspirations of millions of Indians into reality, transforming the country’s situation and leading it on a path of development.

In a bid to connect with the youth, PM Modi addressed the First Time Voters Conclave, encouraging young voters to join the MY Bharat organization and share their views for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

Purandeswari: BJP-JSP Alliance Confirmed

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Andhra Pradesh has made its stance clear: Jana Sena Party (JSP) is their official partner for the upcoming 2024 assembly and Lok Sabha elections. This announcement, made by state BJP president Daggubati Purandeswari, leaves the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) in the cold despite earlier speculations of a three-way alliance.

Purandeswari, however, left the door slightly ajar for the TDP, stating that the final decision on alliances rests with the BJP high command in Delhi. This oblique reference suggests the possibility of the TDP still being included, though it appears less likely now.

The two-day BJP state-level meeting concluded on Thursday, with discussions focused on strengthening the party in AP alongside JSP. Purandeswari expressed confidence in their partnership, even in the face of YSR Telangana Party’s merger with Congress.

Other key takeaways from the meeting include:

  • Courtesy call by JSP PAC chairman Nadendla Manohar to senior BJP leader Shiv Prakash.
  • BJP national secretary Satya Kumar’s declaration of preparing an action plan for a “double-engine government” in AP (referring to a BJP government in both state and central levels).
  • Discussions on the inclusion of new leaders into the BJP fold and the formation of an election manifesto committee.

The BJP’s decision to confirm JSP as their partner is a significant development in the AP political landscape and sets the stage for a fierce contest in the upcoming elections. The TDP’s fate remains uncertain, with their inclusion hinging on the BJP high command’s final call.

AP High Court Reserves Decision on Naidu’s Bail

AP High Court Reserves Decision on Naidu’s Bail:

The Andhra Pradesh High Court has reserved its decision on the anticipatory bail petition of former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu in the Angallu attempt to murder case. However, Nara Lokesh received temporary relief in the AP skill development scam, as the AP CID informed the court that Lokesh’s name had not been added to the FIR in the multi-crore skill development scam.

In the case related to the Angallu incident, the High Court will announce its orders on Friday after hearing arguments from both sides. Naidu’s counsel argued that some of the accused in the Angallu case had already been granted anticipatory bail by the High Court, and the Supreme Court had also refused to interfere with those orders.

The CID’s counsel opposed the bail petition, stating that the violence began after Naidu made his remarks. Naidu and other TD leaders were booked for attempted murder in connection with violent incidents in Angallu village of Annamaya district on August 4. Similar violence occurred in Punganur town of Chittoor district when Chandrababu visited the region to inspect irrigation projects.

Regarding the anticipatory bail sought by Lokesh, the CID informed the High Court that Lokesh has not been named as an accused in the skill development scam case. They clarified that Lokesh would not be arrested in this case. Once Lokesh is included as an accused, he will be issued a notice under section 41A of the Criminal Procedure Code for questioning. Consequently, the High Court disposed of Lokesh’s bail petition.

It’s worth noting that the CID had questioned Lokesh in the Amaravati Inner Ring Road realignment case on Tuesday and Wednesday after issuing a notice under section 41A.
