Former Chief Minister and YSR Congress Party leader Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy made sensational remarks regarding the controversial Tirupati laddu issue, which has stirred both Andhra Pradesh and national politics. He accused Chandrababu Naidu of engaging in diversionary politics, stating that Naidu has failed to fulfill the promises made to the public. Jagan criticized Naidu for allegedly using the laddu controversy as a distraction from his unfulfilled commitments during the elections.
He questioned the appropriateness of a Chief Minister speaking about using animal fat instead of ghee for laddu preparation, suggesting that it was damaging to the sentiments of millions of devotees. Jagan argued that Naidu’s narratives are attempts to cover up his failures, asserting that tenders for ghee supply are called every six months and that the quality assurance tests for ghee have not changed.
On the broader political landscape, Jagan declared that Naidu’s 100-day governance is not a period of achievement but rather a “100-day deception.” He criticized the absence of significant initiatives, mocking the lack of progress in various sectors, including education and housing. Jagan concluded by emphasizing that under Naidu’s administration, all systems are in disarray.
